Operator support & optimization headroom

算子支持 & 优化空间 / Operator support & headroom

Per-operator support derived from software_support.engines + scale-up topology. Optimization headroom from measured efficiency factor.

Optimization headroom
+-21 pp
saturated

Near saturation at 121% of roofline. Further gains require workload restructure (disaggregated, speculative, smaller batch).
