Overview

Mysticeti achieves unprecedented transaction speeds and reduces CPU requirements for validators. By significantly decreasing complexity and optimizing resource use, Sui can handle tens of thousands of transactions per second with latencies well below one second. Latency for owned object transactions can be even lower due to Sui’s unique parallel transaction processing.

How Mysticeti works

Mysticeti is a Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus protocol, based on a direct acyclic graph (DAG), that builds upon the accomplishments of the Narwhal-Tusk consensus algorithm and improves upon its shortcomings.
Validators sign and share blocks without certification
50% reduction in round trips needed for block commits
Transactions inlined within a primary worker’s block
~100k transactions per second for consensus path
New commit rule appoints multiple leaders every round
More transactions are committed earlier
