Could you build this?
Partial A CLI wrapper around llama.cpp is buildable, but producing trustworthy speed and KL-divergence numbers across GPUs and quants needs large compute runs and a reference-logit pipeline.
What it would actually take: Build a harness around llama.cpp that runs each GGUF quant on the target GPU, measures tokens per second and VRAM, and computes KL divergence against full-precision reference logits over a fixed evaluation corpus. The hard part is generating a credible dataset of results across many models and hardware, which requires substantial GPU time and careful methodology.
