Yeah from that spreadsheet you can see that CSC has waaayyy more petitions than VSC. This could be the overall trend and maybe thats why CSC is processing a bit more apps than VSC. They could be trying to keep their backlog down.

However the overall statistics still shows VSC being faster than CSC.

According to VJ, VSC is moving along faster than any other center, with TSC second, NSC third, and CSC last. I found this by going to Immigration Timelines and checking the historical trends for IR/CR visas. (http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?cfl=&autocom=custom&page=ir1cr1historical) VSC is processing forms 3.5 times faster than CSC. As of today, VSC is processing forms in 53 days, TSC in 70 days, NSC in 145 days, and CSC is taking 185 days. VSC and TSC are on downward trends while NSC and CSC are on upward trends. All this is based on what VJers are reporting, so it is important that everyone keep their timelines up to date.

One small problem with your analysis: neither Texas nor Nebraska process IR-1/CR-1 petitions.
