I'd approach it in a boring order. Start by verifying the driver/runtime combo, then test with a smaller prompt, then look at token cost.

Thanks, that helps. The pattern around prefix caching has been pretty similar for me.

Appreciate the detail. I ended up in about the same place using llama.cpp.

What worked for me was pretty simple. If you're on MLX, I'd confirm the version first and then reduce variables until the behavior is obvious. A lot of these threads end up being one bad config plus a pile of conclusions drawn from it.
