Vote credits per voted slot for the epoch from Trillium's same-source credits and voted-slots pair (or avg_credit_per_voted_slot), respecting the 16 credits/slot Timely Vote Credits cap. Higher values mean votes landed closer to their target slots. Absolute vote_credits may use RPC when available, but this ratio always uses the Trillium same-source pair.

What it shows
Protocol vote credits earned per voted slot during an epoch. The theoretical maximum under TVC is 16. The metric primarily measures timeliness among slots where a vote was recorded; missed slots are shown separately.
How it is computed
For each vote account and epoch, protocol credits are credits minus previousCredits. The mart joins that delta to Trillium by vote account and epoch, falls back to Trillium credits when RPC history is unavailable, and divides resolved credits by voted slots. The same numerator/denominator formula is used after pooling network, client, or scheduler totals.
Aggregation: Ratio of summed resolved vote credits to summed voted slots per epoch.
Things to know
- The theoretical maximum is 16. A network average meaningfully below 16 means a significant share of votes landed later than the maximum-credit window.
- This ratio primarily measures vote timeliness among voted slots; missed slots are visible separately in Voted slots and vote-success metrics.
- Solana RPC retains only recent epoch credit history, so older epochs use Trillium's credit total and remain explicitly source-limited.
- Values are constant within an epoch and step at epoch boundaries (roughly every 2 to 3 days).
