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 PublicNode, the highest scorer of those selected.
PublicNodevsdRPC
+3.9points
- Latency+4.1
- Head freshness−0.2
- Availability+0.0
- Correctness+0.0
The parts add to +3.9, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
PublicNodevsMerkle
+19.5points
- Latency+19.1
- Head freshness+0.3
- Availability+0.0
- Correctness+0.0
The parts add to +19.5, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
PublicNodevsCloudflare
+46.6points
- Availability+29.6
- Latency+9.8
- Head freshness*+9.4
- Correctness−2.2
The parts add to +46.6, 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.
