Custom delay (delay_ms)
By default, the Kolibrio auction on Solana uses a 50 ms delay. This is considered the optimal balance between latency, arbitrage discovery time, and transaction landing speed.
Every transaction is temporarily held during this window to search for profitable arbitrage opportunities:
If no arbitrage is found, the transaction is released to the leader as a single standalone transaction.
If an opportunity is found, the transaction is included in an atomic bundle together with the arbitrage leg.
For specific use cases, some users may prefer different behavior:
Higher delay (e.g. 100 ms) — maximizes the probability of discovering and landing arbitrage atomically.
Lower delay (e.g. 0 ms) — minimizes latency but significantly decreases the chances of landing arbitrage atomically.
Kolibrio supports this via a custom query parameter.
