Agreed, you need to consider DoS attacks. I have that in my mind under
security and not performance. I'd imagine the test methodology would be
completely different since you no longer are attempting to simulate real
world traffic.

For script evaluation benchmarking, I don't think just a good
approximation of real-world traffic is enough. You really need to
benchmark the worst case scenarios, otherwise you could be creating a
DoS vulnerability.

Script evaluation performance was what I was primarily concerned with. I'm
fooling around with adding some new instruction types.
The tricky part is that to test how that effects performance, you need to
be able to intersperse transactions with the new instructions with existing
ones. For accurac

Whats the best way to get performance numbers for modifications to bitcoin
? Profiling it while running on testnet might work, but that would take a
rather long time to get data.
Is there anyway to speed this up if we only needed to
provide relative performance between tests. (in a sense a fast p
