# tm-bench
Tendermint blockchain benchmarking tool:
- https://github.com/tendermint/tools/tree/master/tm-bench
For example, the following:
2018-06-22 08:55:07 -07:00
tm-bench -T 10 -r 1000 localhost:26657
2018-06-06 05:53:58 -07:00
will output:
Stats Avg Stdev Max
2018-06-22 16:16:27 -07:00
Txs/sec 833 427 1326
Blocks/sec 0.900 0.300 1
These stats are derived by sending transactions at the specified rate for the specified time. After the specified time, it iterates over all of the blocks that were created in that time. The average and stddev per second are computed based off of that, by grouping the data by second.
