7. What role does on-chip SRAM play in Groq's LPU design?
   • It acts as an external archive for completed user conversations
   • It replaces the compiler's instruction schedule
   • It stores and retrieves data close to the compute units with low latency
   • It stores only model outputs after inference ends
8. In Groq's programmable assembly-line architecture, what does the compiler schedule?
   • Which user requests should be answered first
   • The training labels for each model
   • The order of tokens in the model's vocabulary
   • The movement of data and instructions through compute units
