Results represent a comparison at a point in time using eth_blockNumber RPC method and WITH throttling — each regional probe sent its requests synchronously, after it received the previous response but not sooner than 1 second since the previous dispatch.

You can share a page link for these results. Note that the providers make frequent changes to their infrastructure. Therefore, we recommend additional similar comparisons which can be performed using our public Performance Inspector app for blockchain nodes .
