Sync Tests๏ƒ

The sync tests evaluate the performance of syncing the Cardano mainnet from genesis. These tests focus on:

  • Sync time โ€“ how long it takes to fully sync a node

  • Sync speed โ€“ the rate at which blockchain data is processed in each epoch and each era

  • Node resource usage โ€“ including CPU and memory utilization

The source code for these tests is available in the cardano-sync-tests repository.

Results for each cardano-node release are linked from the corresponding report in Tag Testing.
