@anonymoustroll420: strictly speaking it is not a blocksize increase. Stuff has been moved in another place to make room for other transactions.
As far as I know blocksize is the same and that's the reason for "2x or not 2x". But this is another story.
No, that is strictly false. Segwit is a block size increase; the size of a block message can be up to 4 MB now. 2x is yet another block size increase; it makes the maximum 8 MB.
Cool, thanks for your reply.
When has it been released? I've compared bitcoin core 0.15.0.1 with 0.14.1 and MAX_BLOCK_WEIGHT (should be the right constant to check) is the same.
Does anyone know where to find a document, pdf, slides, ... with a graphical comparison schema of the differences before and after segwit?
