Inference Serving · vLLM

A focused path on why to serve with vLLM on internal GPUs, how to tune it, and how to diagnose slowdowns.

  1. 01

    Why Serve Open-Source LLMs with vLLM on Internal GPUs?

    Deciding internal open-model serving for security, data control, cost, and performance

    When internal GPU serving and vLLM make sense: compare external APIs, adoption trade-offs, batching and prefix caching in plain terms, and a pre-flight checklist.

  2. 02

    What is vLLM tuning?

    Serving LLMs when GPUs are scarce

    A practical guide to serving LLMs on limited on-premises GPUs: diagnose prefill, decode, KV cache, queues, and tail latency to tune vLLM for sustainable throughput.

  3. 03

    Why Is vLLM Slow?

    Diagnosing bottlenecks with TTFT, TPOT, and KV cache

    A practical guide to diagnosing vLLM serving bottlenecks by reading TTFT, TPOT, queue, prefill, KV-cache, and preemption signals together.
