Unofficial RuneBench cost chart: DeepSeek v4.1 Flash scores 6.19 at $0.12 per run

Community account mariofilhoml shared an unofficial RuneBench cost-efficiency scatter plot, claiming DeepSeek v4.1 Flash 1017 (reasoning high, minimal preset) scores 6.19 at roughly $0.12 per run, unofficially tying Hy4 High, which costs far more.

The chart also plots many unreleased or fictional model names (GPT-6 series, Opus 5.x, Gemini 4, Kimi K3.1 Pro, GLM 5.3, etc.), with log-scale API cost per run on the x-axis. Treat it as community speculation/meme rather than verified benchmarking; traces were promised in a follow-up post.
