Right but their payback period is insanely short - a $5M GB200 NVL72 cluster is expected to generate $75M in revenue over 3 years for inference providers. That's a 3 month payback …

I think Tibo was just keeping all else fixed and it’s an illustrative example rather than a perfect real-world trajectory.

Comment #48973311
The chart makes sense and is describing the cumulative cost of a trajectory. Cache tokens are created when a trajectory’s prefix is used more than once. A larger pre-compaction con…
