(Groq Employee) It's hard to discuss Tok/sec/$ outside of the context of a hardware sales engagement.
This is because the relationship between Tok/s/u, Tok/s/system, Batching, and Pipelining is a complex one that involves compute utilization, network utilization, and (in particular) a host of compilation techniques that we wouldn't want to share publicly. Maybe we'll get to that level of transparency at some point, though!
As far as Batching goes, you should consider that with synchronous systems, if all the stars align, Batch=1 is all you need. Of course, the devil is in the details, and sometimes small batch numbers still give you benefits. But Batch 100's generally gives no advantages. In fact, the entire point of developing deterministic hardware and synchronous systems is to avoid batching in the first place.
