Subsecond node-receipt timestamp #17

Closed Mitchellpkt closed 6 years ago

Mitchellpkt commented 6 years ago

When each copy of a block is received (perhaps multiple copies from multiple nodes), record the node receipt timestamp to milliseconds.

This enables study of latency. What's the timing on the shortest route for a txn/block to arrive at MAP node? What's the timing on the longest route? What is the scale of the time difference? milliseconds? seconds?
