01 Configuration Settings

Parameters for rippled.cfg. All section and key names sourced from src/xrpld/core/Sections.h.

Performance Tuning

Primary targets for node_size bug research. Use get_counts cache hit rates to validate behaviour across node_size values.

Section	Default	Valid Values	Description
[node_size]	auto (medium)	tiny \| small \| medium \| large \| huge	Master tuning knob. Sets cache sizes, object limits, thread allocations. Auto-detects from RAM on startup. BUG Auto collapses large→medium on 4-core/32GB. Docs now explicitly say large is not recommended — use huge if ≥32GB.
[workers]	CPU cores + 2	integer ≥ 1	App worker threads for peer/client request processing. Standalone mode defaults to 1. Interaction with node_size needs source verification in Config.cpp.
[io_workers]	src? hardcoded pre-PR#3994	integer	Raw inbound/outbound IO threads. Hub operators should increase. Default not documented — read Config.cpp.
[prefetch_workers]	src?	integer	Threads for nodestore prefetching. Tuning this improves ledger fetch performance under load.
[sweep_interval]	src?	integer (seconds)	Frequency of cache sweep to evict stale objects. Lower = faster memory release, higher CPU cost.
[max_transactions]	250	100 – 1000	Max transactions in job queue before throttling. Hard floor 100, ceiling 1000.

[node_db] — Ledger Store

Almost all production servers should use NuDB on SSD. RocksDB is legacy and degrades over time.

Key	Default	Valid Values	Description
type	NuDB	NuDB \| RocksDB	Database backend. NuDB has near-constant performance regardless of data size. RocksDB is legacy — avoid for new deployments.

online_delete	2000	integer (ledger count)	How many ledger versions to retain (2000 ≈ 2 hours). Must be ≥ ledger_history. Full history servers omit this. Plan for 2× this value in disk space.
advisory_delete	0	0 \| 1	0 = auto-delete on threshold. 1 = wait for can_delete RPC before deleting. Useful for maintenance windows.
cache_mb	src?	integer (MB)	RocksDB Cache size in MB. BUG2 Investigate whether node_size scales this proportionally — if not, large underperforms medium.
cache_size	16384	integer (records)	NuDB cache record count. 0 = use default.
cache_age	src?	integer (minutes)	How long to keep DB records in cache.
bg_threads	src?	integer	RocksDB Background compaction threads. BUG2 If node_size sets cache_mb but not bg_threads proportionally, large underperforms medium.
open_files	512	integer	RocksDB Open file handles.
filter_bits	12	integer	RocksDB Bloom filter bits per key.
file_size_mb	64	integer	RocksDB SST file target size in MB.
file_size_mult	2	integer	RocksDB File size level multiplier.
earliest_seq	32570	integer ≥ 1	Earliest ledger sequence to store. Override to 1 for private networks starting from genesis.
nudb_block_size	src?	integer	NuDB Block size tuning parameter.

03 get_counts — Internal Cache Reference

The primary diagnostic tool for node_size tuning research. Wait at least 10–15 minutes after sync before benchmarking — cache hit rates start low on cold start.

BUG RESEARCH: Compare SLE_hit_rate, node_hit_rate, treenode_cache_size, and write_load across node_size values at equivalent load. If 'large' shows similar or lower hit rates than 'medium', cache scaling is broken.

      rippled get_counts   |   {"command": "get_counts", "min_count": 10}
    

Field	Type	Description & Research Relevance
SLE_hit_rate	float %	State Ledger Entry cache hit rate. Primary benchmark metric. Directly driven by node_size cache allocation. Low rate = undersized cache for current workload.
node_hit_rate	float %	Nodestore object cache hit rate. Should be >90% on a correctly sized node. Drops indicate cache pressure or undersized node_size.
ledger_hit_rate	float %	Ledger header cache hit rate. How often recently-accessed ledgers are served from RAM.
treenode_cache_size	integer	Current treecache object count. Directly set by node_size allocation. Compare medium vs large values to confirm whether allocation actually differs.
treenode_track_size	integer	Tracked treecache objects. If approaching treenode_cache_size, eviction pressure is high — cache is too small for load.
write_load	integer	Write queue depth to nodestore. High values = storage I/O bottleneck, not cache size. Distinguishes disk from memory issues.
fullbelow_size	integer	Size of 'full below' cache — tracks subtrees known complete to avoid redundant fetches.
openledger_size	integer	Objects held in the current open ledger.
local_txs	integer	Transactions in local queue awaiting validation.
uptime	seconds	Node uptime. Required context — low uptime means cold cache, hit rates will be artificially low.
dbKBTotal	KB	Total nodestore database size on disk.
dbKBLedger	KB	Ledger portion of nodestore database.
dbKBTransaction	KB	Transaction portion of nodestore database.
AL	integer	Available ledger versions in local history.
