Example. Matched-cost KDA and Transformer comparison [ftip-00K4]
A matched comparison uses the same task prompts, post-training data and feedback, optimizer family, evaluation protocol, and quality target. The corresponding measurements include parameter count, training FLOPs, inference FLOPs, wall time, memory, KV-cache bytes, and context length for each architecture. A reported speed or quality difference is conditional on these experimental conditions and measurements.
