Winner · 4/8 categoriesGemma 4 E2B· GPT-5 (medium)
Pick GPT-5 (medium) if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Gemma 4 E2B only becomes the better choice if its workflow or ecosystem matters more than the raw scoreboard.
GPT-5 (medium) is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 76 to 39. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
GPT-5 (medium)'s sharpest advantage is in reasoning, where it averages 82.1 against 19.1. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is BBH, 21.9% to 92%.
BenchLM keeps the benchmark table and the operator tradeoffs on the same page so a better score does not hide a materially slower, pricier, or smaller-context model.
Runtime metrics show N/A when BenchLM does not have a sourced snapshot for that exact model. The scoring rules and freshness policy are documented on the methodology page.
