From Jeb's Twitter:

Default world height is likely to be increased in the future, i.imgur.com/nyxrj.png

Uh...wow. o.o

3 syllables... Ah. Maz. Ing

I hope they implement it correctly, though. Otherwise, can you imagine the lag that's going to cause? Just doubling the height would mean it's like having double the number of players online...

It's been doubled in 1.2... And no lag on mc5

The good news is, I believe they implemented it correctly. For instance, "empty" blocks aren't sent to the client anymore (reducing bandwidth lag), and they re-ordered the coordinates to improve data compression ratios. Geeky schtuff.

I think I'm going to rebuild my house higher up in the sky now.

Imma make a huge wizard tower when CR is back

All the way to the top of the new world, Build?
