# Payload, Batch and Execution Comparisons

This report contains the final payload and batch measurements: UDP on 2026-10-12, and other protocols and matched native TCP executions on 2026-10-10. Each protocol retains its own source hash. Coroutine results measure native TCP.

Local Release IPv4 loopback: 16 clients, three payload sizes, four windows and three thread models, with three repetitions per configuration.

| Configuration | Test machine |
| --- | --- |
| Machine model | Mac16,11 |
| Processor | Apple M4 Pro |
| Architecture | arm64 |
| Physical / logical CPUs | 14 / 14 |
| Memory | 48 GiB |
| Operating system | macOS 27.0.1 (26A434) |
| Kernel release | 27.0.0 |

Measurement 1.0 s, warmup 0.25 s. Charts show medians and min/max, not confidence intervals; p99 is the median of per-run sampled percentiles.

Average process CPU uses 100% for one logical CPU and can exceed 100% with multiple threads; estimated values are labeled, and incomplete sets of three CPU samples show N/A. On this 14-logical-CPU host, machine share = process CPU% / 14; 100% of one CPU is 7.14% of the machine.

Apple Clang 21.0.0; CMake 4.3.3; Ninja; Release -O3 -DNDEBUG -std=gnu++20 -arch arm64; TLS ON; sanitizers OFF. Standalone Asio 1.38.2 with BHO Beast based on Boost 1.84 (API 351); Boost 1.90.0 with Asio 1.38.0 and Beast API 359; OpenSSL 3.6.4. Mac mini on AC power, low power mode disabled, no CPU affinity.

The arknet protocol program measures message RTT; matched native Asio callback/coroutine executions measure batch RTT. Their fixed-batch results do not establish speedups over arknet endpoints; public coroutine endpoint APIs remain TODO.

[Reproduction and metric definitions](/arknet/performance/methodology)

Local loopback, fixed connection distributions and short runs do not establish production capacity; repeat with real messages and connection activity.
