In the XRPL protocol, absent any exceptional measures, the fastest a given Amendment can activate is two weeks. This is due to the two-week delay between an Amendment reaching Majority and when it is Activated.
For testing purposes, it is necessary to accelerate Amendment activation on a private or parallel network. For example, you may want an Amendment to activate in 1 hour.
This can be set in the rippled.cfg config file with [amendment_majority_time].
The format must be: [0-9]+ [minutes|hours|days|weeks]
Due to the interval of flag ledgers, amendment_majority_time should be set to 15 minutes or longer. Common values used on past test networks include 30 minutes and 48 hours. As mentioned above, the default is 2 weeks, ensuring node/validator operators typically have at least 2 weeks to avoid being amendment blocked.
