Unfortunately couldn't fit the whole title in the character limit :< 4 comments charles_irl Reply aaronblohowiak 6 hours ago How can you cut latency by more than 1x? I am no intending to be snarky, it just doesn’t fit my brain how you can reduce a measure time by more than the original starting time. aaronblohowiak 6 hours ago Put differently, 1/40 is not the same as 1x - 40x. I’d phrase as Reduced by 97.5% or 0.975x bfeynman 6 hours ago probably just AI slop and using wrong semantics, they mean speedup ratio. charles_irl 4 hours ago You're absolutely right!
