Transactions Per Second Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Transactions Per Second (TPS) is:

\[ TPS = \frac{Total \ Transactions}{Time \ Frame} \]

Where:

\( TPS \) is the transactions per second.
\( Total \ Transactions \) is the total number of transactions completed.
\( Time \ Frame \) is the duration in seconds over which the transactions were completed.

What is Transactions Per Second?

Transactions per second (TPS) is a measure of the throughput of a system, representing how many transactions are processed in one second. It is a common metric used to assess the performance of transactional systems such as databases, network servers, and payment processing systems. A higher TPS indicates a system’s ability to handle a larger volume of transactions efficiently.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Total Transactions: 10,000
Time Frame: 100 seconds

Using the formula to calculate the Transactions Per Second:

\[ TPS = \frac{10,000}{100} = 100 \]

This means that the transactions per second for this example is 100 TPS.
