Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | Solana cluster and consensus documentation |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | The Solana white paper describes proof of history and the architecture. The cluster documentation is the operational consensus text: tower votes, forks, and how a leader schedule is supposed to behave. |
| Who may write | Solana Labs and Anza |
| What is settled | A leader schedule assigns slots. Tower BFT is the vote lockout rule the docs describe. They are different mechanisms that the white paper compresses. |
| Load-bearing assumption | This note does not quote a slot time as a promise. |
| What this library says afterwards | A reading of the project's public design document. Not a copy, not a benchmark, and not an offer. |
