Solana node validator Firedancer client is undergoing final integration and will soon start full testing

Solana node validator Firedancer engineer cantelopepeel.eth posted on the X platform that the final integration of the Firedancer client is progressing smoothly. He added that there is still a lot of work to be done, but the first comprehensive test is coming soon. At the end of October last year, the Solana Foundation officially announced at the Solana Community Annual Summit Breakpoint that Solana's second node validator, Firedancer, has been successfully launched on the test network. Firedancer was developed by Jump Crypto to improve the diversity of node clients, enhance the stability of the Solana blockchain, and further improve Solana's resilience and anti-attack. Compared with Solana's first client, Firedancer was developed in C/C++, which not only improves its compatibility and memory efficiency, but also helps reduce the cost of running Solana nodes.
