The gateway records three epoch-ms stamps per request (admitted, forwarded to
backend, backend first token). They reached *-raw.jsonl but stopped there:
features.csv had only total latency, and none of the figures covered
time-to-first-token.
Derive ttft_ms, ttft_e2e_ms and tpot_ms in one helper shared by the streaming
path (preparation.py) and the in-memory path (features.py) so the two cannot
drift, and add figures 14 (TTFT, backend vs end-to-end) and 15 (TPOT). The two
TTFT series are plotted together because their offset is the gateway admission
delay, which is then readable straight off the chart.
Rows missing a backend stamp and single-token responses are recorded as 0 and
filtered at plot time; left in, they would stack at the origin and pull every
percentile down. Figure 15 is a single panel: TPOT is near-deterministic
(p50 21.9, p90 23.0), so a p90 zoom renders a flat line and a vertical edge.
Verified by recomputing ttft_ms straight from the original SLS rows for all
2190 requests of a sample: 0 mismatches.
