How to read Randomized Benchmarking (RB) Results

The decay curve gives the average gate error. But how do we distinguish between coherent and incoherent noise from a standard RB plot?

Rigetti Ankaa-2 vs IBM Condor: Real-world CLOPS comparison

We just finished a benchmarking run comparing the gate fidelity and CLOPS (Circuit Layer Operations Per Second) on the latest architectures. While IBM has a lead in raw qubit count, Rigetti's tiling architecture is showing interesting scaling for certain Variational Algorithms. Has anyone else pulled the latest Qiskit-Experiments data for these?
