Artifact of Deliverables

Created a Hyperledger Labs Project - https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/benchmarking-cross-chain-bridges

and a companion GitBook that explains how to setup and use the project - https://benchmarking-aggregators.gitbook.io/benchmarking-cross-chain-bridges/

and the report/paper that was generated (TODO: CREATE URL)

The Project was about creating a benchmarking framework for blockchain aggregators – Token Bridge Aggregators, Token Pool Aggregators, On-chain liquidity Aggregators, and Cross-chain Message Aggregators.

We did so by performing a theoretical analysis of each of the aggregators by diving into their GitHub, developer documentations, and blog posts.

We then created scripts that interact with these aggregators to create a standardized benchmarking schema that we then analyzed for fee, latency, downtime, etc.

We also created testing scripts for these aggregators along with custom data types. The tests found results that were inconsistent with the aggregator developer docs and those were reported on the aggregators discord.

We also constantly upgraded our benchmarking with aggregator upgrades. Hyperlane, CCIP, and Hashi upgraded during the course of the mentorship and we benchmarked the older and new versions and discussed the differences in the report.

Some stats across the mentorship are -

8000+ lines of code across 300 commits.

Data collected over a 3 day day period covering 6 token aggregators and 3 message aggregators.

40 pages in-depth report

Modular and upgradable benchmarking script where anyone can contribute new modules for aggregators

Standardized framework for analyzing heterogeneous aggregators
