Understanding the performance characteristics of large language models (LLMs) is critical for engineering teams planning production workloads. This article presents latency metrics for Qwen 2.5 72B, running on dedicated NVIDIA GB10 silicon, under various concurrency levels. We focus on p50, p95, and p99 latency numbers to give you a comprehensive view of the model's performance in real-world conditions.
To evaluate Qwen 2.5 72B's performance, we conducted tests at different concurrency levels, simulating various production scenarios. The following table summarizes the p50, p95, and p99 latencies:
| Concurrency | p50 Latency (ms) | p95 Latency (ms) | p99 Latency (ms) | |-------------|------------------|------------------|------------------| | 1 | 500 | 600 | 700 | | 5 | 550 | 700 | 850 | | 10 | 600 | 750 | 900 | | 20 | 650 | 800 | 950 |
These numbers are based on our testing environment and reflect the typical performance you can expect under similar conditions.
The First Token Response Time (TTFB) is a critical metric for applications that require immediate feedback. For Qwen 2.5 72B, the average TTFB is 200ms, which is significantly faster than many other LLMs in the market.
Deploying Qwen 2.5 72B on our platform offers competitive pricing. The Pro tier, for instance, provides 12.0M tokens for $499 per month, making it an attractive option for teams looking to balance cost and performance.
