So the solution is to continue to increase the block size as demand provokes this issue then?
I guess.. because what else? Are you going to appeal to people to do less transactions, hoping that it would solve the problem? Smiley
I don't believe you can i.e. convince satoshidice to drop down their lucrative business, just because other ppl's transactions are getting queued...
Why should they care anyway, if they pay the same fees as you do?
Since we don't have other solution at hand, scaling up the storage limits seems to be the only option ATM.
Unless we're OK with increasing the fees?

I'm totally OK with increasing fees.
I would not mind it, either.

Whatever the community decides, I'm fine with it, as long as it solves the issue of transactions with proper fees waiting hours for the first confirmation.
The network really seems to be getting stuck already and I don't think it will just get better by itself.
