Rust

nyx-ψ

nyx-ψ (nyxpsi) is a next-generation network implementation designed for resilience and efficiency in lossy and unstable network environments. Through innovative networking strategies and error correction mechanisms, nyx-ψ delivers reliable data transfer where traditional protocols like TCP and UDP fall short.

Built with scalability and robustness in mind, nyx-ψ aims to empower applications that demand high reliability and performance, even in the face of extreme packet loss. Results Summary

Prerequisites

Before building and running nyx-ψ, ensure that your development environment meets the following requirements:

  • Rust Compiler: Version 1.74 or newer is required.

If you need to install rust for the first time run the command below.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh  // installs rust

Update your local toolchain with rustup if necessary.

rustup update  // updates rust
rustc --version  // output should be >= 1.74

Benchmark Results

We conducted benchmarks comparing nyx-ψ, TCP, and UDP under various packet loss scenarios. The test involved transferring 1MB of data under different network conditions. You can conduct your own with cargo bench

Results Summary

Protocol 0% Loss 10% Loss 50% Loss
nyx-ψ 1.07s (100%) 1.07s (100%) 1.07s (100%)
TCP 1.04s (100%) 0.93s (0%) 0.52s (0%)
UDP 1.07s (100%) 5.05s (0%) 5.64s (0%)

Note: Values represent average transfer time. Percentages in parentheses indicate transfer success rate.
