Foundry Local beats llama.cpp by 35-135% on long-context decoding for on-device agentic coding

A Reddit user benchmarks Microsoft's Foundry Local for on-device agentic coding on an RTX 5090 and DGX Spark, reporting 35-135% decode/tg improvements over llama.cpp. The chart shows generation speed gaps widening with context: 1.77x at 4K tokens (265.82 vs 150.60 tok/s), 1.94x at 131K, and 1.95x at 260K tokens. The poster asks whether these optimizations could be ported into llama.cpp.
