Those wanting to scale crypto remind me of people who expect to have great internet multiplayer gaming using a WIFI router.
Encryption & cryptographic functions always slow things down.
Whether its a WIFI router or bitcoin, it could be guaranteed that it will always be somewhat slow.
of course it will get slowed down. Everywhere where money is involved there are many disputes and this block size dispute might actually be destroying for bitcoin unfortunately. It is sad to see that the desire for money is stopping such a wonderful technology from evolving. thus we have to do the uasf as the miners will not agree on something that will cut their profits.
