Technical Support / Re: Are even quicker blocks possible?

Yes, I want to try running it in a local network with fast blocks.
I looked into the code. It seems that it is more complicated than just changing a type of one variable. Seconds as integers are used everywhere in the code, so if I change type of this one variable, I will have to also change many things depending on it.

Technical Support / Are even quicker blocks possible?
« on: May 05, 2016, 11:06:13 am »
Is it possible to set time interval between blocks to less than 1 second? I am running a private graphene/bitshares blockchain. When I try to set "block_interval": 0.5 in my-genesis.json file, I get an error saying "Floating point exception (core dumped)".
I guess witness_node software is not programmed to handle block intervals less than a second.

Is there a fundamental limitation that does not allow to create and distribute blocks in a network in this case? What would happen if say 0.1 second blocks are used? Will there be many forks created and no consensus?
