+# Results
+
+Under specific conditions:
+
+* Restricted GPU memory
+* Low `max_tokens` to be generated
+* Chat threads with decently long user messages
+
+Prefix hashing was shown to have `34%` decrease in average time per token.
+
+`712.11ms (LeastLoad) --> 469.34ms (PrefixHash)`
+
+## Steps taken
+
+```bash
+gcloud container clusters create-auto cluster-1 \
+    --location=us-central1
+skaffold run -f ./skaffold.yaml --tail --port-forward --profile kubeai-only-gke --default-repo us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/substratus-dev
+
+cd ./benchmarks/chat
+make data
+export IMG=us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/substratus-dev/default/kubeai-benchmark-chat:v0.0.2
+docker build -t $IMG . && docker push $IMG
+
+kubectl apply -f ./scenarios/least-load-vs-prefix-hash/model.yaml
+kubectl apply -f ./scenarios/least-load-vs-prefix-hash/pod.yaml
+
+# Run 2x (to ensure both cases start with a preloaded cache)
+kubectl exec -it chat-benchmark -- SCENARIO=least-load-vs-prefix-hash make run
+
+kubectl patch model llama-3.1-8b-instruct-fp8-l4 --type='merge' -p '{"spec": {"loadBalancing": {"strategy": "PrefixHash"}}}'
+kubectl exec -it chat-benchmark -- SCENARIO=least-load-vs-prefix-hash make run
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+* Rerun with increased replicas (i.e. 10 instead of 2)
