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 NodeReal, the highest scorer of those selected.
NodeRealvsMerkle
+12.6points
- Latency+12.4
- Head freshness+0.2
- Availability+0.0
- Correctness+0.0
The parts add to +12.6, exactly — the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart.
NodeRealvsCloudflare
+34.1points
- Availability+29.7
- Head freshness*+9.6
- Latency−3.0
- Correctness−2.2
The parts add to +34.1, 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.
