Re: [ANN] HEAT: 3.0 crypto*multisig fiat*a2a hft*1000tps*DSA*PoS+PoP*e2ee chat*

About tps: The maximum genuine transaction rate per second in p2p data networks that span the globe is even theoretically below 3 tps limited by the speed of light (signal speed in medium such as optic fibre + processing). The HEAT engine is currently capable of processing multi thousand tps on a single node and several hundreds of tps on closely connected nodes with a network connection that can support such speeds.

Please tell me more about how you defy the speed of light. Is it only Magic or did you mix some Alien technology in?

Light travels at a speed of approximately 300 000 km/s. Take the distance between London and Sydney, for example. It is about 17 000 km by airplane, and let us assume that it is about 20 000 km for a signal via satellite. That signal would need 0.067 seconds to travel from the source to the receiver, if we assume no delay in the communication equipment. 0.067 seconds translates to about 15 transactions per second, if there is only one transaction in each message. But, if two transactions are packaged together in each message, then 30 tps can be achieved, if three transactions are packaged together, then 45 tps can be achieved, and so on ... I think this is how higher tps rates can be achieved in global networks.

This may be true in a 1 to 1 connection, but in reality it is too simple. You have more than 1 connections and these connection can receive packets "simultaneously" which ends in a similiar behaviour like putting many txs in one packet. Also the nodes sending you the transactions will not be around the globe but more nearby, therefore you have a lot faster throughput. Roll Eyes
