9 providers scored against each other.
Where the gap comes from
Two scores side by side say one is higher. This says why: the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart, and each component’s share of the difference adds back to the difference exactly. Compared against dRPC, the highest scorer of those selected.
dRPCvsNodeReal
+4.6points
- Latency+4.6
- Availability+0.1
- Head freshness−0.0
- Correctness+0.0
The parts add to +4.6, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsMerkle
+14.4points
- Latency+14.3
- Head freshness+0.1
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +14.4, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsCloudflare
+37.6points
- Availability+29.7
- Head freshness*+9.6
- Correctness−2.2
- Latency+0.5
The parts add to +37.6, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart. Components marked * were measured for only one of the two; the other’s weight is spread across what it does have, which is why the two sides can carry different weights for the same row.
