Formula: weighted speed = 1 / (0.9 / reading + 0.1 / writing).

Both Reading and Writing determine the rank; this is not an arithmetic average.

WHAT IS INCLUDED

Hardware configurations that fit the ordinary Qwen3.8 27B path and disclose reading, writing, power, and acquisition inputs.

WHY THIS FORMULA

It adds time, not rates: a slow write phase cannot disappear behind a fast prefill rate.
