Are there recommended infrastructure sizing guidelines (CPU, RAM, storage, node/replica counts) for Docker or Kubernetes deployments based on active rule count and transaction throughput?

Partial guidance emerged on July 20, 2026. Paysyslabs shared indicative specs based on their own UAT environment for a three-server Docker deployment: server-a (4 cores / 16GB RAM / 50GB disk, core services including TMS), server-b (4 cores / 16GB RAM / 50GB disk) and server-c (8 cores / 64GB RAM / 150GB disk), the latter two running the Release 4.0 extensions - see the tazama-stack aws-deployment-instructions.md for the full breakdown of which services run on each server. Paysyslabs was clear these are UAT reference specs only, not a validated TPS benchmark - no formal throughput/performance analysis has been done yet. Caveat: these figures describe an entry-level Docker Compose deployment, not a production-grade Kubernetes substrate, and should not be used to correlate or extrapolate high-end performance; validated sizing guidance requires formal benchmarking on production-grade Kubernetes infrastructure, which has not yet been performed. A related question about guaranteeing 50ms response times was also clarified: the team is not targeting 50ms internally for the 4.0 release - the current internal target is 200ms. The 50ms figure some community members had seen came from a Release 3.0.0 YouTube demo and does not reflect the 4.0 target. A broader performance evaluation of Release 4.0 is planned but not yet scheduled. If you have production sizing experience of your own, consider sharing it in #get-help while comprehensive official guidance is pending.
