About

I build and run an inference and infrastructure platform, and I write here about the parts of it that produced a number I did not expect.

Everything on this site comes off equipment I operate. The plots are drawn from measurements I ran, the configurations are ones that shipped, and the incidents happened.

How the numbers are produced

Benchmarks are a median of at least three runs, with the run count and conditions stated in the caption. Where a result depends on hardware, the hardware is named. Where a measurement disagreed with something I had previously written, the correction appears on the page in red and the original claim stays visible.

That last part is deliberate. Most of what I have learned came from a measurement contradicting a belief I held confidently enough to have written down, and a site that quietly edits those away is less useful than one that leaves the trail.
