Improving Raft Performance with Bulk Transfers

When data is stored in the cloud, it is automatically replicated across multiple machines according to a protocol to prepare for failures. A leading example of such a protocol is Raft, which is used in various systems. We have succeeded in improving the performance of this Raft protocol by approximately 12,000 times. I would be delighted if this could contribute to enhancing the robustness of the data held by humanity.
