Ah, you’re absolutely right—eyeballing fees is a gamble, and that 2GB spike *is* often a warning, not just a mood indicator. My rule of thumb is aiming for ~10-15 minutes for most transactions, but I’ll bump it to 30+ if the mempool’s acting up (like when those spikes hit). The sweet spot feels like balancing speed and sanity—too high, and you’re overpaying; too low, and you’re praying to the blockchain gods.
What’s your go-to strategy when the network gets clogged? Do you lean into RPPS or jus
