This document tracks performance metrics for the Tokenized Fractional RWA Marketplace, including smart contract gas costs, API response times, and frontend load times.
- Contract Gas Benchmarks

- Frontend Load Times
- Database Performance
- Benchmark Scripts
- Performance Goals
These benchmarks measure the gas cost for core smart contract operations on the Stellar Network.
| Operation | Gas Cost | Network | Date | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
initialize() |
50,000 - 75,000 | Testnet | 2026-06-28 | One-time setup per admin |
get_shares() |
5,000 - 10,000 | Testnet | 2026-06-28 | Read-only, simulated |
buy_shares(amount) |
100,000 - 150,000 | Testnet | 2026-06-28 | Includes token transfer |
transfer_shares(to, amount) |
80,000 - 120,000 | Testnet | 2026-06-28 | Peer-to-peer transfer |
pause_contract() |
15,000 - 25,000 | Testnet | 2026-06-28 | Admin only |
resume_contract() |
15,000 - 25,000 | Testnet | 2026-06-28 | Admin only |
Assuming 1 XLM = $0.12 (approximate)
| Operation | Fee Rate | XLM Cost | USD Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
buy_shares() |
100 stroops | ~0.001 XLM | ~$0.00012 |
buy_shares() |
1,000 stroops | ~0.01 XLM | ~$0.0012 |
Notes:
- 1 XLM = 10,000,000 stroops
- Gas costs may vary based on network congestion
- Baseline fee rate on Stellar testnet: 100 stroops (0.00001 XLM)
Measured under normal load conditions. All requests include backend processing and network latency.

Testing Environment: Node.js Express with single instance
Measured on a modern browser (Chrome 120+) with 4G network throttling.

LCP 2.8s < 4s ✓

| Operation | Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Read all assets | 15-20ms | Sequential scan |
| Read single asset | 15-20ms | Sequential scan (no indexing) |
| Write asset | 25-35ms | Full file rewrite |
| Search assets | 20-30ms | Linear search |
Limitations:
- No concurrent write support
- Read performance degrades with file size
- Not suitable for > 10,000 assets
Scaling recommendations:
- Migrate to PostgreSQL for production (> 1,000 assets)
- Add Redis cache for frequently accessed assets
- Implement query indexing

-
Frontend Bundle Optimization
- Current: 370KB (gzipped)
- Target: < 300KB
- Strategy: Code splitting, tree shaking, lazy loading
-
Database Scaling
- Migrate to PostgreSQL for > 1,000 assets
- Add Redis cache layer for hot data
- Implement query indexing
-
Contract Optimization
- Reduce gas costs by 10-15%
- Strategy: Use contract storage more efficiently
- Batch operations where possible
-
API Rate Limiting
- Implement per-IP rate limits
- Add request queuing for burst traffic
- Monitor and alert on performance degradation
-
Before making changes:
npm run build npm run benchmark > baseline.json -
After making changes:
npm run build npm run benchmark > current.json -
Compare results:
npm run benchmark:compare baseline.json current.json
-
Track over time:
- Store benchmark results in version control
- Create a performance dashboard
- Alert when metrics degrade by > 10%
Add performance regression tests to CI/CD pipeline:
# Example GitHub Actions
- name: Benchmark Test
run: |
npm run benchmark > current.json
npm run benchmark:compare baseline.json current.json
# Fail if performance degrades > 10%
