Yesterday we tested 4 different RS settings. Lets say the results have been supprising. The longer we make the long tail the more throughput we get. Downside is a waste of resources. Longer long tail also means nodes that lost the race still consumed a lot of bandwidth. So ideally we make the long tail short to make it more resource efficient and less painful for the nodes.
In a few minutes we will start new benchmark tests. This time with a new node selection. If it works out I will also explain a bit more in detail how exactly the new node selection works. I don’t want to jinx it.
