You get a marketing average, occasionally a p95 on a status page, and never the methodology. We wrote a <a href="https://blazed.sh/blog/posts/ipc-vs-http-websocket-ethereum-rpc">transport comparison</a> last June that leaned on illustrative ranges because we had not measured them ourselves, and that has bothered us since. So this post measures instead: nine public Ethereum endpoints, up to 300 samples each, percentiles rather than means, a race between three subscription feeds to see who learns about a new block first, and a separate benchmark of what a JSON-RPC round-trip costs when there is no network in the path at all.</p>
