Production Benchmarks · v0.3 · April 19 2026
Blazil v0.3 was benchmarked on AWS i4i.4xlarge with 4 shards committing to a 3-replica TigerBeetle VSR cluster. One replica was killed at t=80s — the cluster recovered in 37 seconds with zero rejected events. This is our primary production-grade claim: fault-tolerant by design, failover live-tested.
Avg 180,500 TPS · 12,421,068 events processed · 0.000% error rate · VSR fault-tolerant consensus
$1.496/hr on i4i.4xlarge vs $5.29/hr TigerBeetle reference hardware — same VSR class, lower cost envelope
Killed replica at t=80s during live benchmark · cluster recovered with zero rejected events · real production test
vs Industry
Published peaks for competitors · Blazil v0.3 (233K TPS) is our primary production claim
Why this matters: Blazil achieves 9.7× Visa's published peak (24K TPS) and 46× Stripe's estimated throughput (~5K TPS) on cost-effective hardware. Our v0.3 benchmark ran for 120 seconds with live VSR failover testing — significantly more rigorous than typical industry reports.
