Speed
How fast output arrives — sustained throughput and time to the first token, which trade off against each other and against cost. Measured on a provider's serving of the model, so it describes an endpoint rather than the weights. Ordered by how many of these benchmarks put a model in their top 10, then by its best placing. Each column keeps its own ranking; nothing is averaged. A dash means the board does not list that model — not a score of zero. Entries not yet matched to a model are left out here; they still appear on their own board.
