# Feature Benchmarks
Feature Benchmarks evaluate Dynamo features, topologies, and feature stacks under controlled traffic. Each page states the question, compares deployable configurations, shows how to reproduce the run, and links to the [Recipe](/dynamo/v1.5.0/recipes/browse) target when one deployment should be used directly.
## Features Under Test
Serving techniques and topology changes benchmarked across the comparisons below.
**KV routing**
Routes traffic to workers with reusable KV cache so TTFT, ITL, and goodput can improve on prefix-heavy workloads.
**Prefill/decode split**
Separates prompt prefill and token decode into specialized worker pools for long-context latency and throughput tests.
**WideEP**
Spreads MoE experts across a wider GPU set so expert-heavy requests get more parallel capacity.
**Embedding cache**
Reuses multimodal embeddings, especially repeated images, instead of recomputing them for every request.
**Speculative decoding**
Drafts candidate tokens and verifies them with the target model; Eagle3 is the speculative path used here.
**KV offload**
Moves colder KV blocks to a host-memory tier so longer context can fit without keeping all KV on GPU.
**Frontend decoding**
Moves decode coordination into the Dynamo frontend so routing and cache policy can act before backend execution.
**Multi-node topology**
Runs serving workers across node boundaries to compare aggregate, single-node P/D, and multi-node P/D shapes.
