Text-to-video takes about 20 s per clip on 40 GPUs; users request 3 clips a second.
Unlock it once for 15 credits; everything inside it is free (runs, changes, Submit, results, hints). Sign in with Google to start; new accounts get free credits.
Success ≥ 99%, p99 ≤ 60 s.
Like a coding problem, a solution has to pass every case, not just the one it was built for. Submit in the lab runs all 5; 2 of them are hidden until then.
3 requests a second for 60 seconds: 100% request (reads).
What each component does in this design, and what calls it. The simulator mimics each one from these settings.
