Fastest free Optimism RPC

As of June 11, 2026, dRPC leads Optimism RPC latency at 21 ms (p50, 24h window), measured across 6 providers. Regional leaders differ: Tenderly in US-East; PublicNode in EU-West; dRPC in Singapore.

Optimism's field pits the Optimism Foundation endpoint against 5 multi-chain gateways. The current leader is dRPC at 21 ms (`eth_blockNumber` p50, 24h) across 6 providers. As on every chain here, the harness classifies each response (`ok`, `http_err`, `jsonrpc_err`, `stale`, `timeout`) so an endpoint stuck on an old head is never ranked as fastest, and probes originate from us-east, eu-west and Singapore.
