Transaction Capacity in MultiChain

Question

Hi,

As from what I understand adding more nodes does not improve the number of tx/sec. So I have a question whether does a better scale computer can increase the number of tx/sec or is there any other way to improved?

Thank You.

Answer 1

Yes, transaction capacity will scale linearly with the basic performance (CPU, disk) of the server on which you're running MultiChain. What transaction rate will you be requiring?

Comments

How many transactions can the MultiChain network handle? So does it means with a better computer the performance will be better?

Does it means each node performance is depend on their CPU running on it?

Thank You

Bu yes, in a general sense, each node's capacity depends on single-threaded CPU performance.
