  Abstract

The existing Ethereum architecture suffered from limitations in transaction processing speed and scalability, which posed challenges for its adoption in enterprise environments with high traffic demands. This paper proposes a solution based on Optimistic Rollup technology. In the conventional Ethereum architecture, a single Ethereum node achieved an average transaction processing speed of 28.15 TPS. In contrast, when a single node was configured with the proposed Optimism-based architecture, the transaction throughput increased by approximately 165%, reaching 74.6 TPS. Furthermore, unlike the non-scalable conventional Ethereum architecture, when the proposed architecture was scaled to ten Optimism nodes, the transaction throughput surged by approximately 2,376% compared to a single Optimism node, achieving 699.1 TPS. These results confirm that transaction throughput increases linearly with the expansion of processing nodes in the proposed architecture.
