HyperIndex Performance Benchmarks
Overview
HyperIndex delivers industry-leading performance for blockchain data indexing. Independent benchmarks have consistently shown Envio's HyperIndex to be the fastest indexing solution available, with dramatic performance advantages over competitive offerings.
Recent Independent Benchmarks
The most comprehensive and up-to-date benchmarks were conducted by Sentio in April 2025 and are available in the sentioxyz/indexer-benchmark repository. These benchmarks compare Envio's HyperIndex against other popular indexers across multiple real-world scenarios:
Key Performance Highlights
| Case | Description | Envio | Nearest Competitor | TheGraph | Ponder | Advantage vs. Nearest |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LBTC Token Transfers | Event handling, No RPC calls, Write-only | 2m | 8m (Sentio) | 3h9m | 1h40m | 4x faster |
| LBTC Token with RPC calls | Event handling, RPC calls, Read-after-write | 1m | 32m (Subsquid) | 18h38m | 4h38m | 32x faster |
| Ethereum Block Processing | 100K blocks with Metadata extraction | 7.9s | 1m (Subsquid) | 10m | 33m | 7.5x faster |
| Ethereum Transaction Gas Usage | Transaction handling, Gas calculations | 1m 26s | 5m (Subsquid) | N/A | 33m | 3.5x faster |
| Uniswap V2 Swap Trace Analysis | Transaction trace handling, Swap decoding | 41s | 2m (Subsquid) | 8m | N/A | 3x faster |
| Uniswap V2 Factory | Event handling, Pair and swap analysis | 20s | 2m (Subsquid) | 34m | 2h24m | 6x faster |
The independent benchmark results demonstrate that HyperIndex consistently outperforms all competitors across every tested scenario. The most significant performance advantage was seen in real-world indexing scenarios with external RPC calls, where HyperIndex was up to 32x faster than the nearest competitor and over 1000x faster than TheGraph.
Historical Benchmarking Results
Our internal benchmarking from October 2023 showed similar performance advantages. When indexing the Uniswap V3 ETH-USDC pool contract on Ethereum Mainnet, HyperIndex achieved:
- 2.1x faster indexing than the nearest competitor
- Over 100x faster indexing than some popular alternatives
