PERFORMANCE

This section tabulates some performance measurements. To view properly, use

**Please note:** The following performance is outdated and does not apply to
the current version of iodine. Since the protocol was updated to use a sliding
window for sending fragments, the throughput was greatly increased and should
be much higher even on high-latency connections.

### Notes
Performance is strongly coupled to low ping times, as iodine requires
confirmation for every data fragment before moving on to the next. Allowing
multiple fragments in-flight like TCP could possibly increase performance,
but it would likely cause serious overload for the intermediary DNS servers.
The current protocol scales performance with DNS responsivity, since the
DNS servers are on average handling at most one DNS request per client.
Multiple fragments in-flight like TCP is allowed in iodine, which does increase
performance, but it may overload some low-bandwidth intermediary DNS servers.
Using carrier-grade DNS servers such as those provided by your ISP should be able
to handle a high volume of DNS queries, and it is recommended to use as many DNS
nameservers as possible to balance the load.
