What do contributors and users report when they time LingBot-World-Fast themselves on 8xH100 (chunk times, cold start, whole-clip time), and how does it compare with the authors' 16 fps / under-1-second statement?

Non-author timing logs for LingBot-World-Fast (14B, 480x832, 81 frames, 8xH100) come from a contributor's profiling pull requests: steady chunks about 1.0 s, chunk 0 about 7.2 s, VAE encode+decode about 5.6 s (26% of generate()), whole generate() 22,146 ms unoptimised, 13,523 ms after three merged PRs and 11,668 ms with a fourth, unmerged PR. If a chunk is 12 frames (WorldRoamBench's chunk size; the PR sample uses chunk_size=3), steady-state is about 12 frames/s, below the authors' 16 fps; a separate user reproducing on 8xH100 with NVLink and FA3 saw about 2.5 s/chunk around chunk 7 (about 4.8 frames/s on the same assumption), twice the 1.21 s another user reported. The discrepancy was not resolved in the thread. No key-press-to-frame measurement was found.

The discrepancy was not resolved in the thread. No key-press-to-frame measurement was found. Curator qualifications: Contributor PR profiling of LingBot-World-Fast on 8xH100 (steady chunk ~1.0 s, first chunk ~7.2 s, VAE 26% of generate(); optimisations from 22.1 s to 13.5 s merged). Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
