Description
Hi, thanks for open-sourcing this project!
I have a couple of questions:
-
Regarding CPU overheads (e.g. scheduling, tokenization, etc) - while they’re mentioned in the documentation, from reading the code, it seems that a request can enter a batch immediately upon arrival. Does the simulator currently model these CPU-related delays? Also, the link in the docs appears to be broken.
-
Are there any plans to continue developing new features in the simulator, such as KV cache-aware routing (like what's in NVIDIA's Dynamo KV Cache Routing?
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by checking the documentation link and the simulator’s request-arrival and batching behavior to determine whether CPU-related delays are modeled. Then review the existing routing implementation and the referenced KV-cache routing design; the issue is complete only when the modeling status, documentation link, and future feature scope are clarified.
