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
+7.1points
- Latency+7.1
- Head freshness−0.1
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +7.1, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsMerkle
+16.2points
- Latency+16.0
- Head freshness+0.2
- Availability−0.0
- Correctness−0.0
The parts add to +16.2, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
dRPCvsCloudflare
+36.0points
- Availability+29.7
- Head freshness*+9.5
- Correctness−2.2
- Latency−1.0
The parts add to +36.0, 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.
