Max Compute Units per Transaction

The hard upper limit of 1,400,000 compute units that a single Solana transaction can consume. This cap applies regardless of the SetComputeUnitLimit instruction value — no transaction can request more than 1.4M CU. The default per-instruction budget is 200,000 CU, but multi-instruction transactions share the overall 1.4M cap. Transactions exceeding their CU limit fail with a ComputeBudgetExceeded error.
