Chainstack Dedicated Nodes Performance Benchmark Report

This report presents a comprehensive performance benchmark analysis of Chainstack dedicated blockchain nodes across multiple protocols, specifically Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, and Solana. The study employs a methodical approach utilizing specialized load test profiles that simulate real-world user interactions to measure the robustness, efficiency, and maximum Requests per Second (max RPS) of nodes in various configurations and cloud environments. Key findings detail the performance metrics across different environments, including Chainstack Cloud Latitude, Virtuozzo (VZO), and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Each protocol's performance is assessed based on maximum RPS, resource utilization, and response times, providing insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each environment. The methodology section outlines the rigorous testing process, focusing on key metrics such as response times and failure rates to evaluate the nodes' capabilities in handling substantial traffic and workloads. Overall, the report aims to inform stakeholders about the performance characteristics of Chainstack's dedicated nodes across different blockchain protocols.
