How is it confusing? Your theoretical GFLOPs are pointless if you cannot feed the new data fast enough. And memory bandwidth available shows you that you indeed cannot - hence this 5.25 GFLOPs of data in + data out. And even this is probably not sustainable. Would have been hilarious to watch Primeagen discover all the scrambling, space-filling curves, local bank-wise distribution, etc. that are used in image processing algorithms to improve cache locality.

@BeefIngot I'm commenting on the moment Primeagen got confused by using GFLOPS to represent memory throughput. This is not an optimisation question, not even a programming-related problem at all, it's a simple arithmetic. I'll tell you more, you can reason about floating point compute throughput in the GB/s units too, though it'll make much less sense. My point is, anyone who was not excluded from a primary school must have an instinct for unit conversion.
