What happened

A Phoronix Premium reader recently inquired about seeing some new benchmarks (a standard test used to compare systems) of AI performance between Vulkan and AMD ROCm back-ends to see how the situation plays out today. Here are some fresh benchmarks on two separate systems with AMD Radeon graphics and using the Lemonade local AI server while exploring the difference between the ROCm and Vulkan Llama.cpp back-ends. AMD is an electrical and semiconductor company based in Sunnyvale, founded in 1969, and its products and services include graphics processing units.
