RE: A Steem stress test experiment
This is a really fun and exciting idea. I'm intrigued, even though I don't have a lot of time that I'm able to invest for it.
Nevertheless, some thoughts I have right now:
1.) Having that many transfers will artificially increase the RC costs of sending transfers for real users.
2.) The most efficient way to try this would be to have a few people controlling thousands of accounts (created via tokens), which are fueled by Steemit Inc. delegations. I think @themarkymark would be a good fit to write down a small script.
3.) It should run only for a very limited timeframe, to not bloat the blockchain unnecessarily.
Yep, I think all of your points are valid.
It would be interesting to see what happens to RC costs under the load and it would be great if Steemit Inc were involved to help process the data afterward to see what it tells.
