Как Ethereum регулирует время между блоками?

Если вы используете geth, вот патч, который я использую для ускорения майнинга. Возможно, вы могли бы изменить его, чтобы замедлить майнинг, если хотите. (Мне любопытно, почему вы хотите идти медленнее). В любом случае, я думаю, что ответ на вопрос «как устанавливается интервал для майнинга» «не очень ясен из кода»… но этот патч должен дать вам фору в понимании таймингов geth.
