LLM benchmark costs analyzed: $0.12 for 3 tasks

Benchmarking three large language model tasks (GSM8K, HellaSwag, and TruthfulQA) on a single T4 GPU costs approximately $0.12. The analysis reveals that generative tasks are the primary cost driver, while log-likelihood tasks can be processed in parallel. Optimizing by capping tokens at 256, using a 25% stratified sample, and employing MC2 scoring can significantly reduce runtime and costs. AI
