And that's with the network as it is today, it can scale much higher. Visa does about 2000 transactions a second and can handle a claimed maximum of about 20000, doesn't match with my experiences waiting in ques during Christmas shopping but it looks like those kind of figures are well within reach.

I'm wondering what the details are.
Assuming every tx has a size of 5kb
1000 * 5kb = 5MB
How can it be achieved without increasing the blocksize?
Eager to test it.
1 mo, Evan posted with some rough scalability examples but it'll take a while to find, it's a few pages back. We've not really heard many details and we're still waiting for the vid from the presentation but as far as I know its all down to quorum technology
Again, not sure but I think InstantX is a component of the same and darksend combines with it, 10 masternodes are selected to lock the transaction and they can handle it in about 0.1 seconds, multiply that by the number of masternodes in the network/10 and that's a hell of a lot of transactions.EDIT:
...
In terms of scalability, if we have 3300 masternodes and a quorum size of 10, that means we can handle 330 requests at once. If the average time per request is about 100 ms, that means we can do 3300 requests per second. The estimate is based on the fact that the network is also doing maintenance at all times (propagating blocks, shard updates, syncing clients, etc), so I'm guessing ~50% of a fully utilized network will go to other activities. Therefore we end up with 1650 requests per second.

. And I remember when Evan talked about quorums few weeks ago at dashtalk.What is interesting that those tx have to be in a block later, so...I'm eager to test it
