I have a question about the node limitation for mainnet. I want to send a lot of transactions at the same time (let's say 1k), on the ropsten network it queues every tx and send batches of 64 every 10 minutes.
I believe the mainnet is faster, but not sure what would be the limit. Let's say that the gas price is no problem and will be high.
EDIT: I'm doing some tests on the main network and I'm seeing same pattern... 64tx each 10 minutes. Why is that? Any way to change it?
You should see very similar results on Ropsten and the main net, as they are very similar chains (Ropsten is the test chain that is used prior to a main net fork).
The best way to send large chunks of transactions is to do it with a smart contract. If you are simply sending Ether, you can write a smart contract, fund it with the amount of needed Ether, and write a function that takes an array of address and amounts, and simply sends to each of these addresses. By doing this, you can send ~25-50 (depending on gasLimit) accounts Ether in a single transaction.
