(in a sense a fast performance regression test).
You have to be specific about what you're measuring, because "performance" is vague. You can measure many aspects of blockchain performance by importing blocks via -loadblock=FILE. Other performance measurements like "how fast does a block relay through the network" cannot be as easily measured. -- Jeff Garzik exMULTI, Inc. jgar...@exmulti.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
