Why this result
DeepSeek V4 Pro is clearly ahead on the BenchAlign aggregate, 60.66 to 55.12. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
DeepSeek V4 Pro's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 31.7 against 3.4.
GLM-4.6 is the reasoning model in the pair, while DeepSeek V4 Pro is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. DeepSeek V4 Pro gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 200K for GLM-4.6.
