We report cost, accuracy, performance (both user experience and system output), and energy estimates. Accuracy confirms run validity and can reveal the available trade-offs between all these metrics.

The benchmark uses each dataset's natural lengths. That means we have to handle chunked prefill, refusals, and steps that mix prefill with decode. This avoids the distorting effects of fixed-length measurements and allows us to capture real sparse activations and bandwidth utilisation.

Current results cover NVIDIA A100, H100, H200, B200, B300 and DGX Spark, plus AMD MI355X. Tenstorrent Blackhole and Cerebras CS-3 performance results are currently available for single-turn, single-query runs.

TEAS 🍵 identifies workloads with different profiles and bottlenecks (prefill, decode, tool use), as well as user choices (stack, batch regime, budget). It highlights the strengths of each accelerator and software stack in different scenarios rather than providing a one-dimensional ranking.

Memory architectures panel at #ISC26 it occurs to me Optane/3DXpoint is probably now economically viable. Can #Micron spin that fab back up?

I'd be the first to say precision is important, but I'm not sure this streaming TV UI has got it quite right

It's great to see UK systems high in the #Top500 list again, but I'm finding it hard to reconcile these two things. I thought the Top500 submission needed the full system to be on the ground and powered up ("all system reported have to be installed and submitted by May 23rd.")
