An engineering team is designing an inference server for a language model. The server is expected to handle a very high volume of short, uniform-length requests that arrive in a steady, predictable stream. The team is considering implementing a system where the batch of requests is dynamically reorganized after every single computational step to add new arrivals. Which of the following statements provides the most accurate evaluation of this design choice for this specific workload?
