So I was setting up SLPDB and was reminded that the Bitcoin Cash network confirmed over 330K transactions in 2 blocks on November 10 2018 (prior to BSV split)

Now I'm reminding all of you :)

If memory serves me right, however, I believe these were the blocks that made the node software infamously "shit itself", because I think the 10th was the scheduled stress test.

But, I know the software (and the ecosystem as a whole) has only been improving since then, specifically to address this and other scaling issues (and to garner adoption). I look forward to a sustained block size in the tens of MBs in the next few quarters. :)
