Median and p95 response times for short and long prompts, measured from repeatable probes rather than vendor claims.

Coming soon

Throughput

### Tokens per second

Streaming output rate and request throughput under steady load, with concurrency and context length recorded.

Coming soon

Efficiency

### Cost per workload

Blended cost for a fixed workload, including cache reads and output tokens, so speed and price can be compared together.

Coming soon
