LLM latency benchmarking: TTFT, throughput, and the long tail
Measure first content, full completion, quality, and failures without hiding the conditions behind the numbers.
Ten substantial guides. Practical API engineering, model intelligence, and trading research—with the conditions and tradeoffs left in.
Measure first content, full completion, quality, and failures without hiding the conditions behind the numbers.
Keep credentials out of browsers, narrow permissions, minimize logs, and require authorization before models act.
Use models for bounded research while preserving evidence, point-in-time data, testing discipline, and review.
Compare hosting routes through workload, cost per accepted task, deployment control, and operating responsibility.
Choose a transport by communication pattern, then design event parsing, partial states, backpressure, and reconnects.
Design an API around useful throughput, bounded queues, operation-aware retries, and tail latency.
Turn model cards, task requirements, licensing review, and evaluation fixtures into a defensible shortlist.
Explore market-data freshness, pre-trade controls, order state, reconciliation, and independent stop mechanisms.
Connect a model safely with a clear task, protected credentials, bounded requests, and response validation.
Separate response caching, prefix reuse, and batching while protecting freshness, authorization, and task quality.
