+The team executed the first high-throughput simulations of Leios using the Rust simulator, with transaction rates reaching up to 1,000 TPS. They introduced two key efficiency metrics to quantify system performance:
-- *Temporal efficiency* measures the fraction of submitted transactions that make it into the ledger, with near 100% indicating optimal transaction inclusion.
-- *Spatial efficiency* represents the ratio of transaction size to total ledger size (including IBs, EBs, and RBs), with higher values indicating better storage optimization.
+- *Temporal efficiency*, which measures the fraction of submitted transactions that make it into the ledger, with nearly 100% indicating optimal transaction inclusion
+- *Spatial efficiency*, which represents the ratio of transaction size to total ledger size (including IBs, EBs, and RBs), with higher values indicating better storage optimization.
Recent revisions to Full Short Leios have shown promising improvements in both efficiency metrics. The simulations revealed an average transaction lifecycle of approximately 100 seconds from submission to ledger inclusion.

### Security and infrastructure improvements
-The team addressed several security vulnerabilities in the web applications through a series of patches:
-- Fixed minor and moderate security issues in PRs [#321](https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-leios/pull/321), [#322](https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-leios/pull/322), [#323](https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-leios/pull/323), and [#325](https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-leios/pull/325)

### Protocol enhancements
Recent protocol improvements include:
- Implementation of revisions to Full Short Leios design to enhance both temporal and spatial efficiency
- Optimization of protocol parameters for improved transaction processing
-- Development of new sharding strategy in Rust simulation
-- Enhanced logging system for tracking spatial efficiency metrics
