## Introduction
The scalability and performance of the [Waku](https://waku.org/) protocol are of critical importance.
[Waku](https://waku.org/) is an open source protocol that enables decentralized, encrypted messaging and data transmission.
Building on the [Ethereum Whisper](https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/networking-layer/#whisper) protocol, Waku facilitates private communication for censorship-resistant decentralized apps and services.
The scalability and performance of the Waku protocol are of critical importance.
To explore these facets with high granulatiry across a wide range of scenarios we turned to [Wakurtosis](https://github.com/vacp2p/wakurtosis), a bespoke simulation framework developed internally.
By studying various network sizes, message rates, and peer discovery setups we aimed to better understand the protocol's capabilities and limitations, hence aspects that could benefit from further optimisation.
