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.
dRPCvsBlast API
+10.4points
- Latency+10.3
- Head freshness+0.1
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness+0.0
The parts add to +10.4, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsMerkle
+18.2points
- Latency+18.0
- Head freshness+0.3
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +18.2, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsCloudflare
+37.3points
- Availability+29.7
- Head freshness*+9.5
- Correctness−2.2
- Latency+0.3
The parts add to +37.3, 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.
