RESULT 87: KHS论文精读 — 同性质获发明人背书, 但迭代计数对比口径不当已停用

关键: 他们自由相亦为一次前向; BP等价性由他们主动写出(cos≈1是正确性依据非弱点); 他们未测余弦
(此轴我方更严格)。不利: 其扫描结论K≥4且"最优K≈层数", 我方K=3在线下一格(K电池落点极佳)。
口径修正: 其迭代为异步局部更新(一次约走一层), 我方一次走完整链 ⟹ "3次vs20次"是不同物相比且
偏向我方, 停用; 改用实测墙钟2.7× vs其6.7-12×。项目页proof卡与技术摘要已同步。

+Training cost is 2.7 times backpropagation in wall clock, measured on the same GPU with the same
+model and batch and with all other load suspended, and 3 times in analytic FLOPs. We quote the
+measured ratio against backprop rather than a relaxation-iteration count, because iteration counts in

 \section{A result from this week, and why it matters for how we work}
 Between 72M and 135M we had been measuring a quality loss that grew with model width, resisted every
