What it does

Serve LLMs with PagedAttention and dynamic batching at scale

Best for

Production serving of open models on NVIDIA hardware when high throughput and predictable latency required.

Inputs
  • · model checkpoint
  • · batch size
  • · tensor parallelism config
  • · quantization method
Outputs
  • · OpenAI-compatible API endpoint
  • · throughput metrics (tok/s)
  • · latency percentiles
Requires
  • · vLLM framework
  • · NVIDIA CUDA GPUs
  • · transformers library
Preconditions

NVIDIA GPU required (16GB+ VRAM for 7B models); CUDA 11.8+; sufficient GPU count for parallelism

Failure modes
  • · Out-of-memory on large batch
  • · Long time-to-first-token (TTFT)
  • · Context window exhausted
  • · Tensor parallelism overhead
Trust signals
  • · PagedAttention innovation (memory efficiency)
  • · Dynamic batching for latency
  • · Industry standard at scale
