getRecentPerformanceSamples

Last updated:

getRecentPerformanceSamples returns a list of recent performance samples taken across the cluster. Each sample summarizes the number of transactions and slots that occurred over a fixed samplePeriodSecs window (typically 60 seconds), and is taken roughly once per sample period.

This is the canonical way to estimate recent throughput — transactions per second (TPS) and non-vote TPS — without polling individual slots. Divide a sample's numTransactions (or numNonVoteTransactions) by samplePeriodSecs to get the average TPS for that window.

Samples are returned newest-first, ordered by slot descending. Use the optional limit parameter to request fewer than the maximum number of samples.

Examples

curl https://triport.io/sol \
  -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <api-key>' \
  -d '{"id":1,"method":"getRecentPerformanceSamples","params":["<limit>"],"jsonrpc":"2.0"}'
const res = await fetch("https://triport.io/sol", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", Authorization: "Bearer <api-key>" },
  body: JSON.stringify({
  "id": 1,
