RE: Everything can be faster on Hive - hive-js & dhive new changes

in HiveDevs3 years ago

Already thought Hive is running into scaling problems, because of the success of Splinterlands and the growing number of transactions. Would be interesting to test, how much load the blockchain and api servers can actually handle.

Sort:  

@blocktrades said in a recent post that he thought his node alone could handle 12x more traffic. And i'm guessing he'll just add to it when it gets there.

There haven't been too many full blocks but if we get there I have also heard developers say they're willing to consider speeding up the block time. So if we go from 3 seconds to 1.5 then that seems like there is even more room for transactions.

As for peakd.com i've never heard the developer complain about us having too much traffic I guess i could ask at what point our servers would have issues with traffic. But as long as there isn't a crazy sudden spike i assume we'll be able to adapt in plenty of time.

But yes I would love to see some more specific tests and stats from people... i'm just using random things I've heard from others.
