Debug `cmpctblock` logging unveils insights into Bitcoin network's block reconstruction efficiency.
Adjustments to node configurations, like node `dave` increasing connections, impact block reconstruction outcomes.
Investigation into block reconstruction times suggests potential network-wide efficiency improvements through policy deviations.
