One might wonder, how do you visually represent a million transactions taking place every second? Developers at Elevated Labs adopted a novel approach for this. Their demonstration involved a series of 5-megapixel images displayed sequentially on a webpage. Each pixel’s color in the images was determined by three transactions (one transaction per each RGB color component). Therefore, every single 5-megapixel image is the result of 15 million transactions. As these transactions were processed, the image transformed, with a complete overhaul every 15 seconds. Thus, in each 15-second window, 15 million transactions were executed, which translates to the touted one million transactions per second.
