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
+7.3points
- Latency+7.2
- Head freshness+0.1
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness+0.0
The parts add to +7.3, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsMerkle
+13.6points
- Latency+13.5
- Head freshness+0.1
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +13.6, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsCloudflare
+37.8points
- Availability+29.7
- Head freshness*+9.6
- Correctness−2.2
- Latency+0.7
The parts add to +37.8, 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.
