GLM-5.3-Flash Provider Benchmark

\n \n \n \n Gateway provider used for each request. Sorted alphabetically.

}\n />\n Higher is better. Successful requests divided by all attempted requests. The sparkline shows the average success rate per hour over time.

}\n />\n Lower is better. Median time to first text across successful requests. The sparkline shows the hourly average over time.

}\n />\n Lower is better. The 95th percentile of time to first text across successful requests, calculated with nearest rank. The sparkline shows the hourly average over time.

}\n />\n Higher is better. Median observed output tokens per second after first text. Calculated as output tokens ÷ (duration − TTFT). Providers that buffer text into a few large chunks can appear unusually fast. The sparkline shows the hourly average over time.

}\n />\n Higher is better. The slow throughput tail: the 5th percentile of output tokens ÷ (duration − TTFT) across successful requests. Buffered responses can appear unusually fast. The sparkline shows the hourly average over time.

}\n />\n Higher is better. Cache hits divided by eligible successful repeats. The first successful request for each provider in each run is warmup and excluded. The sparkline shows the average cache hit rate per hour over time.

}\n />\n \n

Lower is better. MTok means one million tokens.

\n \n Σ observed request cost\n Σ (input tokens + output tokens)\n × 1,000,000\n \n

Only successful requests with complete cost and usage telemetry are included. Cached tokens remain in input; their discount is reflected in observed cost. The sparkline shows the hourly average over time.

The default provider comparison pools\nmeasurements from every completed run for the model. Each run keeps its\nbenchmark version in SQLite so methodology changes remain auditable without\nremoving older completed measurements from the aggregate.\n\nBefore each run, the worker fetches Vercel's live endpoint catalog. It\nbenchmarks every returned provider and stores a normalized provider snapshot.\nProviders newly added by Vercel are included automatically. An interrupted run\nresumes against the exact provider set it started with.\n\nEach provider receives the same fixed multi-turn message array four times.\nAttempts for one provider run sequentially to preserve the cache warmup signal,\nwhile different providers run concurrently. Gateway automatic caching is\nenabled and each request is restricted to the provider being measured.\n\nThe sortable provider table reports:\n\n- Reliability across all attempts.\n- TTFT p50 and p95 across successful responses.\n- p50 and p5 observed output tokens per second after first text.\n- Cache hits among eligible repeated successful responses.\n- Observed cost per million input plus output tokens.\n\nTokens/sec is output tokens divided by `duration - TTFT`. It measures how\nquickly text reaches this client after the first text delta. Providers that\nbuffer output into a few large chunks can therefore appear unusually fast.\np50 is the median, TTFT p95 is the slow latency tail, and tokens/sec p5 is the\nslow throughput tail.\n\n$/MTok is total observed cost divided by total input plus output tokens,\nmultiplied by one million. Cached tokens remain part of input tokens, while\ntheir discount is reflected in observed cost.\n\nThe measurements page exposes Success and Error. Success is based on the\ncomplete consumed text stream, independent of the bounded private response\npreview. Error rows show a short, redacted message; timeouts include the\nconfigured 75 second limit. Raw response text and provider metadata remain\nprivate.\n\n## Schedule and recovery\n\n`benchmark/scheduled.ts` runs every 15 minutes in UTC. Requests have a\n75 second timeout and automatic SDK retries are disabled.\n\nA renewable SQLite lease prevents scheduled and manual starts from\noverlapping. The lease can be reclaimed after five minutes without a renewal,\nso an interrupted invocation does not block several later intervals.\nIndividual attempts are checkpointed, and a later invocation resumes the same\nbenchmark version without duplicating stored measurements.\n\nTo run manually, edit `benchmark/config.ts` if needed, open\n`benchmark/scheduled.ts` in Val Town, and click **Run**. Public visitors cannot\nstart model requests from the HTTP app.\n\n## Access\n\nThe Gateway credential is stored as the encrypted\n`VERCEL_AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY` environment variable. The HTTP app exposes only\nread-only routes.\n\n## Structure\n\n- `benchmark/prompt.ts` — fixed messages and benchmark version.\n- `benchmark/attempt.ts` — one streamed AI SDK request.\n- `benchmark/measurement.ts` — pure observation-to-row conversion.\n- `benchmark/endpoints.ts` — live Gateway provider discovery.\n- `benchmark/lease.ts` — renewable execution lease.\n- `benchmark/execute.ts` — benchmark orchestration.\n- `db/` — val-scoped SQLite schema, writes, provider snapshots, and aggregation.\n- `frontend/` — React interface styled with Twind.\n- `shared/` — shared benchmark and result types.\n",[],[225],"725dc2e4-065e-4d4e-add5-a7a9e6620e2d","types.ts","01a08db7-a43e-72c6-a252-80056c509f22","01a08db7-a43e-72c6-a252-85ca552e8b01",["D",1789084017733],"export type BenchmarkStatus = \"running\" | \"completed\" | \"failed\";\nexport type MeasurementStatus = \"ok\" | \"error\";\n\nexport interface BenchmarkConfig {\n benchmarkVersion: string;\n label: string;\n modelId: string;\n runsPerProvider: number;\n maxOutputTokens: number;\n providerConcurrency: number;\n requestTimeoutMs: number;\n providers?: string[];\n}\n\nexport interface GatewayEndpoint {\n provider_name: string;\n name?: string;\n has_zdr?: boolean;\n has_no_training?: boolean;\n supports_implicit_caching?: boolean;\n pricing?: Record;\n latency_last_1h?: { p50?: number;
