# Student hypothesis: linear + ssm_mamba co-design

- Paper ID: self.20260518120006.002
- Hypothesis: Combining linear + ssm_mamba will improve throughput or memory efficiency without breaking 8GB execution.
- Plan: Create a compact comparative benchmark against a simple baseline, measure VRAM and tokens/sec, and isolate the effect of each ingredient.
- Expected Signal: At least one mode should show better VRAM efficiency or throughput than the baseline.
- Concept Combo: linear, ssm_mamba
- Note: Generated fallback because the architect returned no content.
