Benchmark the batched decoding performance of llama.cpp
There are 2 modes of operation:
prompt not shared
- each batch has a separate prompt of sizePP
(i.e.N_KV = B*(PP + TG)
)prompt is shared
- there is a common prompt of sizePP
used by all batches (i.e.N_KV = PP + B*TG
)

PP
- prompt tokens per batchTG
- generated tokens per batchB
- number of batchesN_KV
- required KV cache sizeT_PP
- prompt processing time (i.e. time to first token)S_PP
- prompt processing speed ((B*PP)/T_PP
orPP/T_PP
)T_TG
- time to generate all batchesS_TG
- text generation speed ((B*TG)/T_TG
)T
- total timeS
- total speed (i.e. all tokens / total time)
