    I’m sorry but this looks like vibe coded marketing slop that’s highly inaccurate.

    For one, there is zero consideration of prompt/KV caching, which we all now is basically essential especially for workloads at scale.

    Secondly, it seems to base all benchmarks off a batch size of 1.

    Nobody running a cluster of B200s or H100s is doing inference with batch sizes of 1.

    And even worse, the calculator assumes you run models with a context window of 0 tokens? That affects how many GPUs massively.

    I’m not nitpicking over small details or intentional simplifications here, but the estimates this is giving is horrendously inaccurate by a few multiples.

      Thank you. For me the hint was: “How many GPUs is 1M/B/T tokens?“

      Those units…

      Also “is” is load-bearing
