A developer shared insights into the challenges of accurately measuring LLM performance, detailing two significant bugs encountered in their pipeline. The first bug involved reasoning tokens consuming the maximum token limit, resulting in empty answers that were incorrectly logged as absent brands. The second issue stemmed from a scorer that only processed Chinese, causing English responses to be misclassified as neutral. To address these problems, the developer proposed six pre-flight checks for LLM pipelines, including monitoring error counts, analyzing token usage and finish reasons, examining answer length distributions, verifying language coverage, and performing manual reviews of scored rows.
