⚡ Performance and Efficiency Benchmarks

This section reports the performance on NPU with FastFlowLM (FLM).

Note:

  • Results are based on FastFlowLM v1.0.0.
  • Under FLM’s default NPU power mode (Performance)
  • Newer versions may deliver improved performance.
  • SmolVLA is a Vision-Language-Action (robotics policy) model. It is measured as end-to-end latency per inference (camera images + instruction → action chunk), not in tokens per second.

Test System:

AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 370 (Strix Point) with 32 GB DRAM; performance is comparable to other Strix Point and Strix Halo Point systems.
