BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
Ask better questions before you connect.
01 / COST
Separate input, output and cache.
Compare the same workload using the same units.
02 / CAPABILITY
A model label is not a test result.
Validate images, tools and context separately.
03 / SERVICE
Read the sample, not just the percentage.
Keep the observation window and sample count visible.
