01 · The idea
What stayed with us
SIMD and cache-heavy bulk BPE can make first-pass tokenization much faster on large corpora, including Qwen tokenizers on Apple Silicon.
02 · The local translation
What we did with it
The implementation is retained as an optional offline data-preparation accelerator rather than a default tokenizer dependency.
03 · The boundary
Where the comparison stops
No current bottleneck was solved. Adoption requires exact token-ID parity and bounded peak memory on the real tokenizer and corpus.
