https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/9d2174b6f5f3fac2463c7ebc2dbb9004b3740d23
this is version 0.3.1 rc1
you can find this line here
Code:
static const unsigned int MAX_BLOCK_SIZE = 1000000;
before it was
Code:
static const unsigned int MAX_SIZE = 0x02000000;
if you convert 2000000 from hex to dec = 33,554,432 bytes = 32MB
also here:
"Because blocksize limit was lowered from 32 MB to 1 MB by Satoshi in early days of Bitcoin."
