On-chain events can be seen as early as about 28 seconds in advance, Polymarket's self-built indexing system goes live

Odaily news: Josh Stevens, Vice President of Engineering at Polymarket, posted on X platform that the team has used the Rust open-source tool rindexer to build its own indexing system. The visibility of on-chain events can be advanced by up to about 14 blocks, approximately 28 seconds; the system can complete indexing within 0 to 10 milliseconds after a block is broadcast, close to real-time.

The refresh speed of transactions, positions, and balances will be further improved.
