race

A speed benchmark replaying transactions on a Uniswap V3 pool.

Setup

scripts/setup.sh

We recommend to use an INFURA node, alchemy rate limits will timeout the first async benchmark.

Running this script will do 3 things:

1. Install foundry, an EVM manager which is used to fork mainnet.
2. Install node dependencies
3. Install Python dependencies

Quick Start

1. Create a .env file and fill in the RPC_URL environment variable, similar to .env.example

2. Run:

   scripts/run_all.sh

What does success look like?

You should see an output that looks something like:

➜  race git:(main) ✗ scripts/run_all.sh
