Re: [ANN] UNIVERSA | Blockchain Protocol for Business

Hello. It is true that the test speed of a network differs considerably comparing to the speed of a network with users employing it on a regular basis. Although I cannot make a case against your points, I find it necessary to mention that the TPS speed benchmarks, we have been conducting, does not imply the empty blockchain solely, but also includes so-called stress testing. The stress testing helps developers to raise the volume of "transactions" within the network, so that the maximum capability could be defined as the TPS speed of fully functional blockchain platform.

Thanks for the answer. I want to ask, what is the stress test about? As far as I understand, the real work of the network is the connection and execution of various requests of tens of thousands of users with different tasks simultaneously from different points of the world.

Stress test is like real work and harder to see how the system works in extreme conditions.

Good. And what about the fact that customers will be located around the world, there are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. Can a stress test emulate this?

I think it can slightly vary in real-time conditions. It would be great to see how fast it can be in real conditions. I guess we will see it soon when nodes will be launched. But alfa bank test is indeed a good indicator of what we can expect in terms of speed. Universa was tested with other platforms, as was said in the video. I don't think that a bank can't test TPS properly. The speed must be fast indeed. I expect it to be even faster as more nodes will join the network.
