Lava Benchmark

Lava is measured across 4 live OpenChainBench benchmarks: Fastest free Sonic RPC, live no-key endpoint latency (ranks #5 of 6, 384 ms p50), Fastest free Ethereum RPC, live no-key endpoint latency (ranks #6 of 8, 367 ms p50), Fastest free Arbitrum RPC, live no-key endpoint latency (ranks #7 of 8, 399 ms p50), Fastest free public RPC for Ethereum, BNB, Polygon and 7 more EVM chains (ranks #12 of 14, 383 ms p50).

4 benchmarks

Lava Network is a decentralized RPC mesh with permissionless validators. Public no-key endpoints work for Ethereum (`eth1.lava.build`) and Arbitrum (`arb1.lava.build`); other chains require an account-issued key.

RPC performance by chain

Where Lava's free endpoint ranks on each measured chain: 24h p50 across 3 probe regions, success rate and failed probes. Full field on /rpc.

Rank counts live providers only; unresponsive endpoints keep recording success rate but hold no latency percentile. Errors (24h) = sample size × (1 − success rate).
