TPS Expansion
Firedancer on Solana) demonstrates that high transaction-per-second (TPS) metrics are often an "illusion of scale" masking inefficient, congested systems. Instead of merely increasing raw throughput, FOGO utilizes structured, parallel execution (via SVM) to reduce contention, allowing independent transactions to process simultaneously, resulting in superior stability and efficiency over mere TPS expansion.
Why Structured Parallelism Outperforms Raw TPS
Reduced Contention and Improved Stability: Raw TPS expansion often hits a bottleneck where transactions conflict, leading to congestion. FOGO’s parallel structure allows non-conflicting state updates to process at the same time, significantly reducing network contention and preventing cascading failures.
Architectural Efficiency Over Marketing Metrics: While many blockchains chase headline TPS, FOGO focuses on runtime behavior, validator performance, and efficient state handling.
SVM-Based Design: By utilizing the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) and the Firedancer client, FOGO provides a highly efficient, parallel execution environment designed specifically for on-chain trading and financial services.
Bottleneck Relocation: Traditional systems, even L2s, often face bottlenecks in state updates or L1 settlement. FOGO’s architecture shifts focus to execution throughput and internal state management.
