This graph shows daily distributions of how many rounds an F3 instance took to finalize. A round here corresponds to the round variable in the GossiPBFT pseudocode. We count the rounds from the F3 GossipSub messages that our Hermes node receives.
round
The total height of each bar shows the number of instances that started on that particular day. The different colors in each bar show how many instances took how many rounds to finalize. Hover over a bar to see the number and the share of instances for each number of rounds. Usually around 50% of instances finalize within the first round. However, it can sometimes take a few more rounds (usually up to six).
