ggml 1.0.0 release removes 13 APIs, offers no CPU speed boost

The release of ggml 1.0.0 introduces significant changes, including the removal of 13 public API functions and updates to the RPC protocol to version 9. Despite these changes, performance benchmarks on a CPU-only system showed no improvement in text generation speed, remaining at approximately 19.8 tokens per second. Prompt processing speeds also showed negligible differences within measurement noise, particularly at shorter context lengths. The primary benefits of this release are code cleanup and the addition of new features like YaRN truncation controls and enhanced GPU backend support, rather than direct CPU performance gains. AI

IMPACT This release focuses on library cleanup and GPU backend improvements, offering minimal direct impact on CPU-based LLM inference performance.
