SKALE Chain Sizes
SKALE Chain sizing is tuned during development and testnets and is set both by the schain_allocation.yml file in SKALE Node, and by SKALE Manager which tracks resource allocation of nodes in the network.
| Initial deployment of SKALE Chains will be Medium size only. Other sizes will be available in later releases. |
| Current node storage for each SKALE Chain is allocated to consensus (30%), blockstorage (30%), filestorage (30%), and logs (10%). |
