Another "stress test" just started. The backlog is already 60 MB of unconfirmed transactions, and the input traffic is ~ 3 MB every 10 minutes, or ~5 kB/s . So far, the tester is paying 0.2 mBTC/kB, like the last one. Will it keep at that, or increase the fees later?
How accurate are these figures? Its a simulation of a model of the system, so doubly removed!!.
As the dev admits, " the main tradeoff, however, is the dependence on the model assumptions"
