Inputs: outputs/qwen3-30b-tp1-ts1-migration-v2/kvc_1p3d_migration_v2_run1_metrics.jsonl outputs/qwen3-30b-tp1-ts1-validation/dp4_metrics.jsonl Outputs: docs/figures/tpot_pdf_comparison.png -- two-panel figure (mirroring the TTFT PDF style): left panel: linear x in [3.5, 9.0] ms zoomed on the body right panel: log x covering full range (1 -- 20 ms) The headline finding here is that **KVC and DP have statistically indistinguishable TPOT distributions**: same model on same GPU type means per-token decode latency is determined by hardware/model, not by routing policy. This is paper-relevant: it proves KVC's TTFT win is not bought by sacrificing decode throughput.
