 ### 3.2 MoE Batch Size `-b 256`
 
-- **Date**: PENDING
-- **Change**: Add `-b 256` to MoE benchmark runs
-- **Expected**: Up to +70% pp improvement for MoE models (community benchmarks)
-- **Benchmark**: Not yet run
-- **Verdict**: PENDING
+- **Date**: 2026-03-30
+- **Change**: `-b 256` vs default (2048)
+- **Benchmark**: `data/benchmarks/batch-default-*` vs `data/benchmarks/batch-256-*`
+- **Result** (Vulkan RADV, Qwen3.5-35B-A3B UD-Q4_K_XL, q4_0 KV):
+  - Default: 826 pp, 55.9 tg
+  - b=256: 843 pp, 55.5 tg (within noise)
+- **Notes**: Community-reported +70% improvement does not reproduce on Vulkan RADV. May only apply to ROCm or CPU backends, or to longer prompts (pp8192+).
+- **Verdict**: NO IMPACT on Vulkan — not recommended
