About This Dashboard
What is Solana TPS (transactions per second)?
Solana TPS measures how many transactions the network processes per second. Solana is designed to handle high throughput — theoretical maximum exceeds 65,000 TPS under optimal conditions, though real-world sustained TPS is typically 2,000–5,000 for non-vote transactions. The Liquid State Solana dashboard displays the average TPS over the most recent 60-second performance samples sourced from the Solana public JSON-RPC.
What is the Solana transaction fee?
Solana charges a base fee of 5,000 lamports (0.000005 SOL) per signature on each transaction. Additional priority fees can be attached to increase transaction priority during high-congestion periods. The live USD cost of the base fee is shown above and updates every 5 minutes based on the current SOL spot price — consistently among the lowest base fees in the industry.
What is a Solana epoch?
A Solana epoch is the period during which a fixed set of validators is eligible to produce blocks. Each epoch lasts approximately 432,000 slots, and at the current average slot time of ~400ms per slot, each epoch takes roughly 2 days to complete. At the end of each epoch, staking rewards are distributed, and the validator set and stake weights are recomputed for the next epoch.
What is Solana slot time?
A Solana slot is the unit of time during which a designated leader validator produces a block. Solana targets one slot every 400 milliseconds (0.4 seconds), giving theoretical block finality in under a second. The actual slot time shown on this dashboard is calculated from recent performance samples and reflects real network conditions, which can vary during periods of high load or network instability.
