### Per-Iteration Cost
-Each PAIR iteration performs **3 sequential model calls**:
+Each PAIR iteration performs **3 model calls per stream**:
1. **Attacker** call (generate/refine prompt)
2. **Target** call (execute candidate jailbreak)
3. **Judge** call (score response)
-So expected wall time is approximately:
+With `n_streams` independent conversations, the query budget per goal is
+approximately `n_iterations * n_streams`. `batch_size` controls the number of
+stream workers: `1` is serial, while a value above `1` executes up to that many
+streams concurrently. Expected wall time is approximately:
-`iterations * (t_attacker + t_target + t_judge)`
+`iterations * ceil(streams / batch_size) * (t_attacker + t_target + t_judge)`
If any provider call is slow, iteration latency increases accordingly.
