 The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the scalability of GNU Taler in 
a real-world
-scenario. That is, moving away from the loopback system to a distributed 
network and iden-
-tifying improvement opportunities therein to analyze and improve performance. 
While the
-basic framework was already known from the previous study, this work focuses 
on extend-

 other things, the horizontal distribution of the PostgreSQL database.

 We identified and fixed several bottlenecks in the GNU Taler software. We 
parallelized the
-execution of the cryptographic frontend, leaving the PostgreSQL database as 
the natural bot-
-tleneck. Here, we optimized queries and modified the schema to enable table 
partitioning.
-The scalability demonstrated in our experiments shows that Taler is very 
capable of pro-
-cessing enough transactions per second to be considered an acceptable payment 
system.

 Throughout this work, we were able to increase the performance of Taler by a 
factor of 95,
