Overview
Private RPCs can reduce variance and exposure for MEV workflows. Focus on reliability, latency, and fair policies.
What to measure
- Median and variance of WSS open/first message.
- Error rate under load; throttling behavior.
- Regional routing and TLS handshake time.
Tips
- Prefer providers with consistent latency over occasional fast spikes.
- Keep a public fallback path with strict caps.
- Rotate endpoints if variance increases.
Tooling
- Use the WSS Latency Test tool on this site to benchmark.

The TL;DR makes it easy to share with teammates.
Clear and concise—thanks for the safety notes!
Inclusion rate improved after moving to private bundles.
I set tighter caps and avoided a big loss—thanks!
Any tips for tuning slippage caps on volatile pairs?
Could you share recommended WSS providers?
Could you compare relay options in more detail?
Backrun example clarified a lot for me.
Latency figures would be nice to benchmark against.
Would love a video walkthrough for setup.
Adding a “pitfalls” section was a nice touch.
Benchmarks vs public PGA would be amazing.
Hope to see more examples on Polygon.
