Cached input is 80% cheaper than fresh input, a smaller discount than the 90% median. The weights are open, so other hosts can serve it and prices may differ from the provider's own. Its listed price changed on five or more days in the last month, usually because the cheapest host changed, so check the provider before relying on the figures above.
