Benchmarking

Example benchmark run

This is an excerpt of a real benchmark run from 2018-12-11. We highlight the observed metrics and the calculations for the benchmark using the obtained results and graphs.

• TPS: transactions per seconds metric
• Time to block: the time it takes for a transaction to be included in a block
• Lock time: Times waiting for/holding the lock
• Mempool: we measure the fillness level (number of transactions) of a mempool

The metrics are prepared with tools/post-mortem in Cardano SL.
