Slow confirmation times on BTC and BCH.

People complain about slow confirmation times on BTC, but now BCH has the same problem (only worse since I doubt bumping your fee will convince the miner to include your tx). I honestly never knew it was so easy to cripple low-transaction-fee blockchains and it costs almost nothing on BCH.

I'd be curious to know what BCH's average confirmation times are when factoring in this attack. Does anyone have that data?

Are there any ideas on how to mitigate the attack? I know the other miners could orphan his blocks, but I don't think that's ideal. And I know BCH aims for secure zero-conf, but predictable confirmation times are still a big deal.

And does this change your investment outlook on BCH?
