…o OpenSearch Disagg perf-sanity uploads only aggregate client-side metrics today, so a TTFT regression gives no indication of which lifecycle phase moved -- ctx queueing, prefill, the KV-cache relay, gen admission, or the response relay back. Add a disagg benchmark mode, e2e_time_breakdown, that runs the workload once and additionally aggregates the 12 contiguous request-lifecycle spans that tensorrt_llm/serve/scripts/time_breakdown already computes into mean/median/p75/p99, uploading the 48 values as d_tb_<span>_<stat> alongside the normal metrics. First case: disagg_upload-e2e_time_breakdown-gb300_deepseek-v4-pro-fp4_8k1k_con666_ctx6_ dep4_gen1_dep16_eplb384_mtp3_ccb-NIXL. The metrics are registered in MINIMIZE_METRICS but deliberately not in REGRESSION_METRICS: they are diagnostic and never fail a stage. The mode sets num_postprocess_workers: 0 on the workers, which keeps the breakdown structured but measurably changes throughput. The case therefore lands on its own s_test_case_name series and its aggregate numbers are not comparable to the sibling e2e case. Two transport defects had to be fixed first, or the uploaded spans would have been silently wrong rather than absent. Since the worker->disagg per-request timing became Server-Timing header strings, build_metrics_headers forwarded only arrival_time and last_token_time; server_arrival_time, server_first_token_time and the two kv_cache_transfer timestamps were dropped, and the parser substituted fallbacks that yield plausible-looking values (measured gen_postprocessing 145.0 ms against a true 11.0 ms). Second, _jsonl_perf_metrics popped the KV-transfer timestamps whenever kv_cache_size was falsy, and kv_cache_size is worker-local and never reaches a header-derived record, so fixing the transport alone still zeroed the KV span. 10 of 12 spans were wrong before; all 12 are exact after, which is now covered by unit tests. This fixes --save-request-time-breakdown for every disagg user, not just perf-sanity. New header tokens are named srv-start/srv-ttft/kv-start/kv-end because the disagg server rewrites the phase prefix with an unqualified str.replace() and any second "server-" substring would be double-substituted. Also widens the benchmark-mode whitelists in both submit generators and in the cache-transceiver precheck's argparse, which would otherwise have killed the precheck srun before the workload started. Per-step and per-chunk detail is preserved in the worker JSONLs for offline drill-down but cannot be uploaded: the step/chunk headers carry durations, not absolute timestamps.

…down The e2e_time_breakdown mode uploaded the 12 per-request lifecycle spans, which locate a TTFT regression in a phase but not inside prefill or decode. Add the per-chunk (prefill) and per-step (decode) breakdowns, taking the uploaded set from 48 to 108 fields. Those two breakdowns exist only in the worker perf_metrics JSONLs -- the worker->disagg header transport carries durations, not the absolute timestamps they need -- so add tests/integration/defs/perf/time_breakdown_metrics.py to aggregate the JSONLs directly. It is stdlib-only, so importing it during test collection does not pull in tensorrt_llm, and it also runs as a CLI for offline drill-down on an existing run directory. Metrics are gated by case type: ctx_only publishes the context and per-chunk groups, gen_only the per-step, generation and disagg-server groups, e2e all five. An unsupported group uploads 0.0 rather than being absent, so the column exists on every row of the series. Non-chunked prefill is reported as a single chunk. Two hazards the aggregation has to handle: The instance arrays use a different clock base than the request timing, offset by a constant per worker *process* (measured across four gen workers on one run: +0.0003, +377680.565, +9.9706, +0.9927 s). Only the first instance's preprocessing crosses that boundary, and the offset must be estimated per worker -- keyed on ctx_server/gen_server for combined records, on the file path for worker files. Estimating one offset across N workers corrupts the first instance for N-1 of them, which reads as a plausible few-millisecond shift rather than an obvious error. Where the offset cannot be pinned, that single value is dropped rather than emitted uncorrected. Aggregation is deferred until after benchmark_status is written, for the same reason the gen_only device step time is (nvbugs 6487036 / 6487040): the workers append to their JSONLs until their srun exits, and reading early would silently aggregate a truncated run. tb_step_preprocessing is negative whenever the overlap scheduler is on, since step N forwards before step N-1's token is emitted. It is reported as-is, and the log-line regex accepts a leading minus. All 108 are registered in MINIMIZE_METRICS and none in REGRESSION_METRICS, so each gets a baseline and a diff line without being able to fail a build. Validated against a GB300 DSV4-Pro-FP4 disagg run (1 ctx + 4 gen workers, 80 requests, 80 chunks, 18480 steps): the aggregation reproduces the same values from the worker files and from a merged file, the 10 lifecycle spans sum to the measured disagg TTFT exactly, the 5 chunk spans tile ctx_processing, and the gen_queue sub-spans sum to gen_queue.

Disagg e2e uploads only aggregate client-side metrics (TTFT, ITL, TPOT, throughput). When one of those regresses there is no device-side number on the row, so a slowdown in decode cannot be told from host or transport cost -- and host_step_time cannot substitute, because under the same loop body it agrees with prev_device_step_time by identity. gen_only already publishes five per-iter prev_device_step_time statistics scraped from gen_server_*.log. This forwards the same family to e2e and e2e_time_breakdown via a new DEVICE_STEP_TIME_MODES tuple, uploaded and baselined but never gating: those modes keep the default REGRESSION_METRICS, which contains no gen_worker name, so the five can only ever earn a baseline and an s_regression_info diff line. gen_only continues to gate on mean and median, where token throughput is dominated by KV-cache transfer and is not a useful signal. A missing value omits the columns rather than failing the run, except in gen_only where the family is the only regression signal and the existing hard fail stands. ctx_only is excluded by construction: it runs the aggregated runtime from a disagg yaml with no gen worker, so no gen_server_*.log exists. TTFT is the prefill signal there and already uploads for every mode. The uploaded field names keep gen_worker and are unchanged -- they are live OpenSearch columns with baseline history, and s_test_case_name (a match key) carries the mode as its prefix, so e2e and gen_only share a column but never a baseline series. Two module constants are renamed to match the widened scope: GEN_ONLY_DEVICE_STEP_TIME_METRICS -> DEVICE_STEP_TIME_METRICS and GEN_ONLY_PERF_METRIC_LOG_QUERIES -> DEVICE_STEP_TIME_LOG_QUERIES. Also fixes a latent wrong-number bug this would otherwise expose. The scan took start_offsets but no end bound, so it read to EOF; because the parse is deferred until after teardown, a mode with more than one client would give client 0 a mean averaged over every later client's iterations. Latent, not live -- all CI disagg configs carry exactly one concurrency and the generator rejects more -- but silently wrong rather than absent, and plain-pytest local runs do allow several. Each client's window now ends at the *next* client's pre-launch offset snapshot, which cannot exclude an iteration the previous client drove however late the worker flushed it; the last client reads to EOF. The scan reads bytes and decodes per line so the accounting matches the getsize() bounds exactly (a text stream cannot report its position mid-iteration). With one client end_offsets is None, i.e. byte-identical to before, so the gen_only lane is unaffected. Tests: per-mode upload and omission without a benchmark_mode; the gating contract as an assertion; the window confining a client to its own segment, reading to EOF when unbounded, tolerating a bound past EOF, and dropping a straddling line; plus invalid UTF-8 and CRLF coverage for the binary read. Mutation-tested -- reverting either half of the end_offsets plumbing fails exactly the intended tests.

Review summary - CONCERNS
Verdict: The design is careful and unusually well documented, and the transport fixes look right and are properly pinned by new unit tests — but three things should be settled before merge: the breakdown aggregation is not client-scoped, the role fallback in the aggregator can attribute ctx timings to gen spans, and widening the device-step-time collection to e2e changes teardown behaviour for every existing e2e case.
Issues

QA view
- Test coverage: partial - the aggregator, the header transport, the KV-timestamp fix, the byte window and the log-line/regex contract are all well covered (including a genuine mutation-style regression test for the per-worker clock offset). Uncovered:
_append_time_breakdown_metrics,time_breakdown_dir/_time_breakdown_worker_overrides, the newcheck_test_failurebranch,perf_metrics_output_dirinjection into the disagg server config, the--save-request-time-breakdowncommand construction, the incompatibilityValueError, theget_disagg_test_casesallowlist, and thebenchmark_servingreport block itself. - SM coverage: architecture-independent — no
get_sm_version,__CUDA_ARCH__, arch-guarded kernel or fp8/nvfp4 path in the diff. Unit tests are CPU-only; the single integration case is GB300-only by construction, which is appropriate for a perf lane. - Test code: module-level
sys.path.insertthat is never undone; inconsistentcpu_onlymarkers between the two new files; leaked file handles in three comprehensions; a hardcoded497.0expectation derived from fixture arithmetic; the 11-entrysys.modulesstub in_load_test_perf_sanityis brittle test infrastructure. No assertion anywhere pins the single-client assumption the upload path relies on. - Test time: significant - one extra full 10-node / 40-GPU GB300 post-merge run (
TIMEOUT (120)), stage count raised 2 -> 3 injenkins/L0_Test.groovy:6515, plus a new sentinel wait and full gen-log scan on every existinge2ecase. Exact minutes are not derivable from a diff. - Needs
/qa-verify: yes - a new multi-node perf case plus changes to the perf harness itself; someone should confirm on hardware that the 108 fields land non-zero for the supported groups, that the claimed internal identities hold on real data, that the disagg combined JSONL is actually written, and that an existinge2ecase still fits inside its timeout.
Possible new issues
- A yaml with more than one concurrency value gives every client an identical, whole-run
d_tb_*block — silently wrong rather than absent. - A missing/empty disagg combined file degrades to ctx-derived gen spans (wrong values) and all-zero group 5 (indistinguishable from instant relay);
check_test_failureonly fires when notb_metric parsed at all. X-TRTLLM-Start-End-Timenow carries six timestamps per phase instead of two for any deployment withreturn_perf_metricson; no header-size guard is visible._time_breakdown_worker_overridesdeliberately wins over the yaml'sworker_config, sonum_postprocess_workers/return_perf_metricsset in a shared yaml are silently overridden in this mode.
What I could not verify
- Whether
benchmark_serving's--save-request-time-breakdownargparse entry takes a value; the diff shows only the report block, and_to_default_benchmark_cmdappends a path after the flag. - Whether
self._output_dir/self._test_param_labelsare already set when_parse_disagg_config_filecalls_time_breakdown_worker_overrides()->time_breakdown_dir(); an ordering mistake there would be anAttributeErrorat config-parse time. - Whether the
gen_server_{i}.donesentinels are written on thee2eteardown path at all — if they are gen_only-specific,e2enow pays the full fallback timeout on every run. - Runtime behaviour of the whole chain (worker -> header -> disagg combined -> client -> log scrape -> OpenSearch); the measured GB300 clock offsets quoted in the description cannot be checked from the diff.

bug_refsand were not looked up; I make no claim about their content or status.

Review summary - Approve (non-blocking)
Approving so this is not blocked on me. The points raised in my review comment above are non-blocking — please read them and address what you agree with before merging.
Worth doing before this is relied on: New test-infrastructure and a new post-merge multi-node perf case with no way to validate it offline: someone should run the e2e_time_breakdown id once on GB300 and confirm (1) 108 d_tb_* fields land with non-zero values for the supported groups and no zeroed group 4, (2) the internal identities the PR claims hold on real data (chunk_* sums to ctx_processing; gen_queue_wait+gen_kv_transfer+gen_post_transfer == gen_queue), (3) an existing e2e case on the same lane still finishes inside TIMEOUT (120) now that it waits for the gen teardown sentinels, and (4) the disagg combined perf_metrics-disagg-*.jsonl is actually produced, since its absence silently degrades group 4/5 rather than failing.

ctx_only + time_breakdown parsed, collected and documented, but was never wired: ctx_only is parsed by the disagg parser and *executed* on the aggregated runtime, so it took none of the disagg branch's worker overrides and AggrTestCmds had no aggregation step. The lane ran green and uploaded 44 zeros, which on a dashboard is indistinguishable from a case with no breakdown. - apply the worker overrides in the ctx_only branch of _parse_disagg_config_file, so the single aggregated server records timings into perf_metrics_output_dir - extract the reduction out of DisaggTestCmds into a module-level append_time_breakdown_metrics() and call it from AggrTestCmds.run_cmd after the finally block, for the same reason the disagg path defers it (nvbugs 6487036 / 6487040) - widen the "parsed no Time Breakdown lines" guard past the disagg runtime predicate, which had exempted exactly ctx_only - pass benchmark_mode/time_breakdown to add_perf_metric_value on the aggregated upload path - allowlist the con666 stem and emit aggr_upload-ctx_only-time_breakdown-*, register the lane in l0_gb300_multi_gpus_perf_sanity.yml, and reject --time-breakdown for unsupported modes in local/submit.py Review feedback: drop 0-valued samples in compute_statistics (a zero is an unrecorded endpoint, not a zero-width span), convert the test-id grammar asserts to ValueError so python -O cannot turn a malformed id into a run against the wrong config, add type annotations, replace sys.path.insert with monkeypatch.syspath_prepend, register test_request_metrics.py in l0_cpu.yml, and correct the README/example.conf shapes. Tests: 9 new cases, including a negative control that fails when the ctx_only override splat is removed, and a lane-list/allowlist cross-check in both directions.

Compare
Resolves the one conflict, in ClientConfig.__init__: main added the warmup knob (run_agentx_mode / self.warmup) and this branch added save_request_time_breakdown at the same point, right after self.benchmark_client. Both are kept; main's two lines go first because run_agentx_mode reads self.benchmark_client directly above them. Verified after resolution: both attributes are assigned exactly once, main's `if not self.warmup: --no-test-input` and this branch's `if self.save_request_time_breakdown:` are both still reached when building the client command, and b_warmup still reaches to_db_data.

LGTM for test-db change.
…e_breakdown main's warmup feature (WARMUP_BENCHMARK_MODES) covers exactly the two modes the time_breakdown modifier supports, e2e and ctx_only, so both breakdown lanes now run benchmark_serving without --no-test-input and issue one un-measured warmup request before the measured window. benchmark_serving awaits that request, checks it for success and discards it, so it is absent from benchmark_result["completed"] and from every d_* client metric on the row -- which is why the client computes expected_count = completed + 1. The servers do still append a perf-metrics record for it, so the deferred aggregation, which reads whole worker files, was pooling it in. That would have left d_tb_* as the only family on the row computed over a different population than the rest of the row. compute_time_breakdown_metrics() takes drop_warmup_request, and the harness passes the client's own warmup flag through pending_time_breakdown. The record is identified by isolation -- it completes before the measured window opens, whereas measured requests arrive at the lane's concurrency and always overlap -- and dropped per file, since only the ctx worker and gen worker that served it hold a record. Verified on the real 6660-request GB300 run: asking to drop on that (pre-warmup) run drops nothing and moves none of the 108 fields, and every file's first measured request overlaps the second by 1.6-9.8 s, so no measured request is near the guard. Injecting an isolated cold request makes 22 fields move and dropping it recovers the warmup-free values exactly. Both directions are mutation-tested.

Reviewed the harness plumbing, the new aggregator, and the two production files 1.
|
| mode | actual wait before reading | files read |
|---|---|---|
e2e + time_breakdown |
gen sentinels only (incidental) | ctx + gen + disagg — ctx and disagg unsynchronized |
ctx_only + time_breakdown |
none (ctx_only is not in DEVICE_STEP_TIME_MODES, so the wait never runs) |
ctx JSONLs — all unsynchronized |
Groups 1, 2 and 5 are computed from exactly those files, and a short read is silent:
it just yields a smaller sample, and no d_tb_* is regression-gated. Same race class
the PR already defends against on the gen path — worth extending the sentinel to the
ctx workers and the disagg server, or gating the aggregation on a wait that covers them.
3. Two new cases duplicate an existing workload — can they be merged?
Both new entries describe themselves as re-running an existing case verbatim:
# Same workload as the e2e case above, run once, …
# Same workload as the ctx_only case above, run once, …
with TIMEOUT (120) and TIMEOUT (90). On GB300 NVL72 (10 nodes / 40 ranks for the
e2e one) that is a substantial recurring spend to measure the same workload twice,
and it grows linearly if the breakdown is later wanted on more configs.
The stated reason they cannot share a series is throughput perturbation from
num_postprocess_workers: 0. But per the PR description that knob is required only
because PostprocWorker.Output forwards request_perf_metrics and not
time_breakdown_metrics — and that looks like a small, self-contained gap rather
than a design constraint:
PostprocWorker.Output(tensorrt_llm/executor/postproc_worker.py:81) is a
9-fieldNamedTuplethat already carriesrequest_perf_metrics: Any = None;- inside that file
request_perf_metricshas exactly three touch points — the field
declaration (:86), the read (:191), and the pass-through (:262); - the only other consumer in the executor layer is
executor/result.py.
So: is adding a parallel time_breakdown_metrics field there in scope? If it works,
num_postprocess_workers: 0 goes away, the instrumented run becomes
throughput-comparable to the plain one, and the two cases collapse into one — which
also removes the "its throughput is deliberately NOT comparable" caveat and the
separate baseline series that comes with it.
If that plumbing turns out to be harder than it looks, could you note why in the
PR description? Right now the description explains what the knob does but not why
forwarding one more field is not the fix, and a reader hitting the duplicated GB300
cost will ask the same question.
Two smaller items I'll leave here rather than in separate threads:
time_breakdown_metrics.py:503 — one malformed JSONL line makes _read_jsonl raise
and the handler discard the whole file, whereas
benchmark_serving._read_new_perf_metrics skips just the bad line; losing the
combined file zeroes group 5 and silently reroutes groups 1/4 to worker fallbacks
while the row still uploads green. And benchmark_serving.py:1146 — the diagram's
except (OSError, ImportError) cannot catch a missing plotly (imported at module
scope via time_breakdown/__init__.py, so the client dies earlier), while plotly's
own ValueError/TypeError failures are not caught.
…metrics
Addresses review feedback on the time_breakdown modifier.
1. benchmark_serving no longer round-trips the perf-metrics records through
disk to compute the breakdown. RequestTimeBreakdown.parse_records() takes
the in-memory list, and the .jsonl write moves after the "Time Breakdown"
prints and is wrapped in try/except OSError like the other two artifacts.
An unwritable output_stem (no --result-dir) now costs the artifact, not the
measurement.
2. The aggregator waits for the writers before reading. Only the generation
workers announce completion (gen_server_{i}.done); the context workers and
the disaggregated server do not, so wait_for_perf_metrics_files() polls
until the discovered set stops growing and then compares the largest file's
complete-record count against the client's --num-prompts. Both a
still-growing set at the timeout and a census shortfall are warnings: a
nearly-complete file still yields usable statistics, and reading early is
otherwise invisible because all 108 fields stay populated and the row
uploads green.
3. _read_jsonl skips an unparsable line instead of raising, mirroring
benchmark_serving._read_new_perf_metrics. A partial final write previously
discarded the whole file, which zeroes the cross-role group and reroutes the
per-request groups to same-role fallbacks that produce plausible values for
the wrong phase. Skipped lines are counted and reported.
4. The timing-diagram except clause drops the unreachable ImportError (plotly
is a module-scope import) and catches ValueError/TypeError instead.
Tests: 6 new cases in test_time_breakdown_metrics.py covering the line skip,
the settle window (injected clock), the timeout path and the census check, plus
a parse_records/parse_json_file equivalence test. Both new behaviours were
negative-controlled by reverting them and confirming the new tests fail.

…eepSeek-V4-Pro shapes The e2e time_breakdown modifier had one lane (con666). Extend the allowlist to every DeepSeek-V4-Pro fp4 8k1k shape perf sanity runs disaggregated -- con8, con180, con666, con4301 -- so the host-overhead breakdown covers the whole concurrency sweep rather than one point on it. Each of the three new stems lives in its own multi-node lane list, so each adds one split to its own Jenkins stage and none lengthens another. con8's unmodified e2e and gen_only lanes are both waived under nvbugs/6661856; the modified lane runs the same workload and would fail identically, so it is waived against the same bug and unwaives with them. num_postprocess_workers stays 0: PostprocWorker.Output has no field for time_breakdown_metrics, so a non-zero value drops the per-chunk and per-step spans silently. Measured on gb300 aws-cmh at con666 -- npw=4 completed green with 6660/6660 requests and the same 156 log lines and 19983 JSONL records as npw=0, but 56 of the 156 values (14 spans x 4 statistics, every chunk_* and step_* span) were exactly 0.0 and ctx_chunk_metrics/step_metrics were absent from every record.

…o OpenSearch Re-lands NVIDIA#18445, reverted in NVIDIA#18736 after post-merge CI hit: tests/unittest/tools/test_perf_sanity_matching.py:: test_warmup_is_derived_from_exactly_the_e2e_and_ctx_only_modes ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'defs.perf.time_breakdown_metrics' The root cause is a semantic merge conflict between two independently-green PRs, not a defect in either. NVIDIA#18432, merged two days earlier, added a _load_module() helper that execs tests/integration/defs/perf/test_perf_sanity.py by file path under a synthetic `defs.perf` package with an empty __path__, plus a closed allowlist of stub siblings in sys.modules so the heavy ones (torch, the OpenSearch client) are never imported. NVIDIA#18445 added a new real sibling, time_breakdown_metrics, and imported it from test_perf_sanity.py. With an empty __path__ and no stub entry, that import cannot resolve. The failing test is not one of NVIDIA#18445's own; dropping those would leave the failure unchanged. The fix belongs in the helper rather than in the perf code: give the synthetic package a real __path__ so a stdlib-only sibling resolves for real. time_breakdown_metrics is deliberately stdlib-only, so it imports cleanly in a CPU-only job. Entries already in sys.modules still take precedence, so the heavy siblings stay stubbed, and the next stdlib-only sibling will not break this file. Everything else is NVIDIA#18445 unchanged, apart from two conflicts with main: * l0_gb300_multi_gpus_perf_sanity.yml keeps main's 120-minute budget for the con4301 ctx_only case (NVIDIA#18859, nvbugs/6682113) and re-adds the time_breakdown con666 lane at 90, the budget its own workload carries. * waives.txt is left as main has it. nvbugs/6661856 has since been unwaived and the con8 base cases now run, so the time_breakdown sibling is not re-waived. Verified on CPU: test_perf_sanity_matching.py 19/19 (previously 1 failed), test_time_breakdown_metrics.py 20/20, test_perf_submit.py 101 passed and 1 skipped (needs torch), test_cache_transceiver_precheck_config.py 60/60, and test_perf_regression_branch.py 19/19 as an unaffected control.

1. What this PR does
Adds a
time_breakdownvariant to perf-sanity so that a disagg (or ctx-only) case can upload aper-phase decomposition of request latency to the perf database, next to the throughput/latency
metrics the case already uploads.
<prefix>-<mode>[-<modifier>]-<config stem>[-<server config>], with the modifier vocabularyclosed to
TEST_ID_MODIFIERS = (TIME_BREAKDOWN_MODIFIER,)....-e2e-time_breakdown-<stem>...is therefore a separate case, with its own baseline series, from
...-e2e-<stem>....tests/integration/defs/perf/time_breakdown_metrics.py— stdlib-only,reduces the per-request JSONLs a run leaves behind into
d_tb_<span>_<stat>fields(27 spans x 4 stats = 108 fields). Also runnable standalone on a saved run's JSONLs.
tests/integration/defs/perf/test_perf_sanity.py: the modifier injectsthe server-side knobs needed to emit the JSONLs, appends
--save-request-time-breakdown <dir>to the client, and — after the measured window closes —computes and uploads the breakdown.
e2e(previouslygen_onlyonly), for diagnosis; see section 3.test_e2e[disagg_upload-e2e-time_breakdown-gb300_deepseek-v4-pro-fp4_8k1k_con666_ctx6_dep4_gen1_dep16_eplb384_mtp3_ccb-NIXL],validated on GB300 NVL72 (10 nodes / 40 ranks), 6660/6660 successful requests.
The modifier is rejected up front for benchmark clients that cannot emit the breakdown
(
use_nv_sa_benchmark: true, or any non-benchmark_servingbenchmark_client), so amisconfigured case fails naming the reason instead of uploading a row of zeros.
2. How a perf-sanity run with
time_breakdownworksConfigure. Parsing the
time_breakdownsegment out of the test id makes the harnessmerge
return_perf_metrics: true,perf_metrics_output_dir: <dir>andnum_postprocess_workers: 0into every server config (ctx workers, gen workers, and thedisagg server), and append
--save-request-time-breakdown <dir>to the client command.num_postprocess_workers: 0is required becausePostprocWorker.Outputforwardsrequest_perf_metricsbut nottime_breakdown_metrics; it measurably changes throughput,which is exactly why the modifier gets its own baseline series.
Run the benchmark. Unchanged from the base mode, warmup request included:
e2eandctx_onlyare both inWARMUP_BENCHMARK_MODES, so the client runs its "initial singleprompt test run" first. While it runs, each worker appends one JSONL record per request to
<dir>/perf_metrics-*.jsonl. Worker records carry the per-chunk (ctx_chunk_metrics) andper-step (
step_metrics) detail; the disagg server's combined record carries thecross-role request timestamps.
Client-side report (human aid). After the measured window the client re-reads only the
records appended during the window (it snapshots file sizes before the run), pools the
public-server files into one
<stem>.jsonl, and prints its 12 per-request lifecycle spans asTime Breakdown <span> <stat> (ms): <value>lines. It then writes<stem>-time_breakdown_stats.jsonand an HTML diagram. The lines are printed first so amissing plotly or a read-only path cannot cost the measurement. Nothing uploaded comes from
this path.
Merge + extract (the upload path, no HTML). Deferred until after
benchmark_statusiswritten, because workers keep appending to their JSONLs until
srunexits(nvbugs 6487036 / 6487040) — extracting earlier truncates the sample:
discover_perf_metrics_files(<dir>)collects every non-emptyperf_metrics-*.jsonlunder<dir>and<dir>/perf_metrics/, de-duplicated by realpath.benchmark_servingawaits that request, checksit for success and then throws it away, so it is absent from
completedand from everyother
d_*on the row (hence the client'sexpected_count = completed + 1); leaving itin would make
d_tb_*the only family computed over a different population. It isidentified by isolation -- it completes before the measured window opens, whereas
measured requests arrive at the lane's concurrency and always overlap -- and dropped per
file, since only the ctx and gen workers that served it hold a record. On the 6660-request
GB300 run every file's first measured request overlaps the second by 1.6-9.8 s.
compute_time_breakdown_metrics(paths, benchmark_mode)classifies each file(
combined/merged/ctx_worker/gen_worker), reduces each file independently— which is what makes the per-worker clock-offset correction correct with multiple ctx and
multiple gen workers — then pools the resulting per-request and per-instance samples into
one case-level distribution and emits mean / median / p75 / p99 per span.
per-chunk / per-step detail only exists in the worker files. It is pure stdlib: no plotly,
no HTML, no chart rendering.
Transport + upload.
format_metric_log_lines()renders each aggregate as oneTime Breakdown <span> <stat> (ms): <value>line appended to the benchmark log;parse_metrics_from_outputscrapes them back out asd_tb_<span>_<stat>andprocess_and_upload_test_resultsuploads them — the same log-line transport already used forthe gen-worker device-step-time statistics.
Verification identities the aggregator holds by construction (assertable by the caller):
groups 1+4+5 minus the
gen_queuesub-spans tile the disagg-observed TTFT exactly; the threegen_queuesub-spans sum togen_queue; the five per-chunk spans sum toctx_processing; thefive per-step spans tile the inter-token period, so
step_preprocessingis legitimatelynegative when the overlap scheduler is enabled.

d_tb_*names are registered inMINIMIZE_METRICS(every span is aduration) and deliberately not in
REGRESSION_METRICS, so each gets a baseline and a diff line— which is what makes a TTFT or throughput regression attributable to a phase — without any of
them being able to fail a build.

(worker overrides on the single server, aggregation in
AggrTestCmds.run_cmd, and acheck_test_failureguard not scoped to the disagg runtime). Unit tests cover each hop, including acase that fails if the override splat is removed, but the n=3 stability numbers below are from the
e2e lane only.
On stability. Measured n=3 on the new GB300 e2e case, before
mainadded the warmuprequest; warmup should tighten these further rather than loosen them, and the warmup request
itself is excluded from the breakdown (section 2, step 4): the gated throughputs are stable

d_tb_*diagnostics vary much more — the tail statistics of the queueing spans(
gen_queue_waitp75,gen_post_transferp99,gen_preprocessing,ctx_queuep75) aredominated by the first concurrency round's ramp and swing tens of percent run to run, while the
compute spans are tight (
