Efficiency of Sequential vs. Batched Processing
An LLM inference server receives two user requests simultaneously. Compare the computational efficiency of processing these requests sequentially (one after the other) versus processing them as a single batch. In your explanation, focus on how the use of parallel processing hardware, like GPUs, is affected in each scenario.

Aggregated Architecture for Prefilling and Decoding
Static Batching
A technology company is optimizing its popular chatbot service, which is powered by a large language model and handles thousands of simultaneous user queries. To manage this high load, their engineers implement a system that waits to collect several user queries and processes them together as a single group in one computational step. Which of the following outcomes is the most direct and significant advantage of this approach?
