GLM-5.3 endpoint posts 92.8% error rate as Artificial Analysis starts counting failed requests

Artificial Analysis updated its API performance benchmark: failed requests — errors, rate limits and timeouts — now score a speed of 0, and each endpoint gets an Endpoint Error Rate metric.

For GLM-5.3, the endpoints with the fastest streaming take 18–26 seconds to return the first token (vs 1–3 seconds for most others), so they fall down the speed rankings once that wait counts toward total request time. The chart shows one ULTRA GLM-5.3 (Max) endpoint averaging a 92.8% error rate, while most other providers sit at 0%.
