Hey Christian,

Could you sort the snapshots by date? At the moment they're kind of in a
random order.

Sometimes I wish we had real-time stats too but this is a great start.

I will definitely extend the calculations to include a size-normalized<br>
version. As for transaction propagations, being much smaller the<br>
measurements tend to be much noisier, but given enough samples we<br>
might be able to reconstruct some of the system parameters.<br>
<br>
Good idea to attempt to correlate propagation speed and number of<br>
inputs/outputs, might be interesting to see whether processing at the<br>
nodes has an influence.<br>
