AI kernel compilation for edge devices depends on the compiler's ability to exploit parallelism and hide memory latency in the presence of hierarchical memory and explicit data movement. This paper reports a benchmark methodology and corresponding results for three compiler-controlled mechanisms in an MLIR-based compilation pipeline: vectorization (Vec), multi-threading (MT) across hardware contexts, and double buffering (DB) using ping--pong scratchpad buffers to overlap DMA transfers with compute. Using Triton/Inductor-generated kernels, we present an ablation ladder that separates the contribution of Vec, MT, and DB, and we quantify how MT speedup scales with problem size using GELU as a representative activation kernel. The results show that vectorization provides the primary gain for bandwidth-sensitive kernels, MT delivers substantial improvements once scheduling overhead is amortized, and DB provides additional benefit when transfers and compute can be overlapped (i.e., outside the extremes of purely memory-bound or purely compute-bound behavior).
