Key insight: Orange line (latency) should trend down toward 10s threshold. Green line (cost) should trend down toward $0.01. Blue shaded area shows gas limit increases — efficiency improving despite harder blocks is the success story.

Key insight: A healthy ecosystem is mostly green (sub-10s), with thin yellow and red bands. The 95% threshold is the RTP cohort liveness eligibility bar. Growing yellow/red bands indicate emerging issues — investigate gas spikes, difficult blocks, or prover problems.

Key insight: Proving economics depend on GPU rental costs. When GPU prices drop, proving becomes cheaper — but software optimizations can outpace hardware savings. The gap between the orange and green lines shows how much efficiency the ecosystem has gained beyond just cheaper GPUs.

Key insight: 1:1 on-prem leads on performance and cost efficiency. 1:1 cloud trades slightly higher cost for operational flexibility. 1:100 provers (sampling mode) don't have performance scores but offer lowest cost entry point.
