Internet Computer performance

Measurements
Update calls
The internet computer can currently sustain more than 11000 updates/second for a period of four minutes, with peaks over 11500 updates/second.
Query calls
Arguably more important are query calls, since they contribute with more than 90% of the traffic we are observing on the IC.
The internet computer can currently process up to 250’000 queries per second. We are working on several improvements to those numbers that should improve the query performance by at least on order of magnitude. During our experiments, we increment the load incrementally and run each load for a period of 5 minutes.
