Pulse Benchmarks
Head-to-head benchmarks against leading binary decoded stream providers
All benchmarks run via geyserbench — the standard open-source tool for measuring shred-level data delivery latency on Solana.
Methodology
- 100,000 transactions per region, per test
- Same hardware class, same network conditions
- Same protocol (gRPC), same format (binary decoded transactions)
- Head-to-head against the leading competitor binary stream

- >96% first-place — across 200,000 sampled transactions, Pulse delivers first vs leading competitor
Reproduce
Anyone can reproduce the benchmark independently using geyserbench .
During 3-hour free trial, test Pulse against your existing provider on your own infrastructure. If we don’t win, nothing lost.
