   [End to end benchmarking](https://github.com/apache/tvm/pull/8858) was added 
to the VM and graph executor in order to faithfully represent execution time of 
a graph module in order to account for data transfer overheads. This can be 
particularly significant on discrete GPUs, where PCI-E transfers are important 
to account for in a typical model serving deployment.
   
   This PR proposes to modify the default measurement done by TVMC to always 
benchmark end to end execution time from CPU local device context.
   Another option is to expose in TVMC a flag that lets the user perform end to 
end benchmarking. I recommend however not benchmarking without data transfer 
overheads as it presents an overly optimistic outlook on TVM performance.
