ROCm InferaSim: Cut LLM Serving Trial Costs and Deploy the Best Configuration

Serving an LLM well means making a lot of choices before you know the answer. You pick an engine, a parallel layout, precisions and scheduler settings, and for disaggregated serving a split between prefill and decode. That leaves thousands of candidates, and each trial ties up one or more multi-GPU nodes for minutes. Measuring every candidate in our searches would take about 25,000 GPU-hours, so most teams try a few guesses and keep the best. A guess that misses costs you extra GPUs or a missed latency target.

Implementing a High-Performance Custom Diffusion Attention Kernel with FlyDSL

Readers may be familiar with traditional Transformer models and their attention mechanisms. The traditional autoregressive transformers generate tokens iteratively. Since this feature significantly limits the inference throughput, researchers have begun exploring approaches such as diffusion models that can generate multiple tokens in each iteration.
