To evaluate the profitability of mining both a parent and child
transaction, the miner looks at them as a _package of transactions_ with
an aggregate size and aggregate fees, from which the fees can be divided
by the size to calculate a _package fee rate_. The miner can then sort
by the size to calculate((("package fee rate"))) a _package fee rate_. The miner can then sort
all of the individual transactions and transaction packages they know
about by fee rate and include the highest-revenue ones in the block
they're attempting to mine, up to the maximum size (weight) allowed to
be included in a block. To find even more packages that might be
profitable to mine, the miner can evaluate packages across multiple
generations (e.g., an unconfirmed parent transaction being combined with
both its child and grandchild). This is called _ancestor fee rate
both its child and grandchild). This is ((("ancestor fee rate mining")))called _ancestor fee rate
mining_.
Bitcoin Core has implemented ancestor fee rate mining for many years,
