Tôi đã test hàng chục nghìn request để tìm ra model nào thực sự "nhanh như lời đồn". Kết quả sẽ khiến nhiều bạn bất ngờ.
Tại Sao Tốc Độ Phản Hồi Lại Quan Trọng?
Trong kiến trúc microservice hiện đại, mỗi millisecond delay đều ảnh hưởng đến trải nghiệm người dùng. Một API call chậm 200ms có thể khiến tỷ lệ bounce tăng 50%. Đó là lý do tôi xây dựng bộ test harness để đo lường chính xác performance của từng provider.
Môi Trường Test
- Server: 16 vCPU, 32GB RAM, Ubuntu 22.04
- Concurrency: 1 - 100 simultaneous requests
- Payload: 500 tokens input, đo thời gian đến khi nhận đủ response
- Metrics: TTFT (Time To First Token), E2E Latency, Throughput (tokens/second)
