"consensus-agnostic"
Arbitrum uses and refers to consensus as 'verifiers' that assumes the existence of a consensus mechanism, including a...

Efficency
Arbitrum’s VM architecture makes dispute resolution very efficient.
Even if parties behave counter to their incentives, Arbitrum verifiers can efficiently adjudicate disputes about contract behavior without needing to examine the execution of more than one instruction by the contract.
Max TPS
Up To 4,500 transactions per second
Additional Info
- Compatible with Ethereum, Solidity Smart Contract code is comipled with Arbitrum
- Only verifies digital signatures instead of every part of the contract for the VM
