Question

I have setup multichain in my virtual machine and testing assests,streams and other functionalities.

I would like to know how to find the TPS in multichain, how i can get the count.

TPS is the no of txs per second gets committed?
How can i define TPS excatly in multichain.

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

When we measure transactions per second for our own benchmarks, we consider the full lifecycle of a transaction, including its creation, signing, propagation, mining and block verification. So the way we measure is constantly create new transactions on a node or a network using the MultiChain API, and then measure over the long term how many transactions are confirmed over (say) a 5 minute period.

Thanks for your reply.
As suggested I had continuosly tried sending data to stream in a loop using node JS API.

This is my block creation timings (2 minutes).

How can i confirm the TPS in this case.

You need to time how long it takes to send the transactions, and count how many are sent in that time.
