vLLM-MLX: Blazing Fast LLM Inference on Apple Silicon!
Analysis
Key Takeaways
“Llama-3.2-1B-4bit → 464 tok/s”
“Llama-3.2-1B-4bit → 464 tok/s”
“the ik_llama.cpp project (a performance-optimized fork of llama.cpp) achieved a breakthrough in local LLM inference for multi-GPU configurations, delivering a massive performance leap — not just a marginal gain, but a 3x to 4x speed improvement.”
“The CPU time was 5-11 ms for depth doses and fluence spectra at multiple depths. Gaussian beam calculations took 31-78 ms.”
“A diffusion language model that runs 3-6× faster than vLLM-optimized Qwen3-8B on math reasoning tasks.”
“HTTP range requests for metadata. Wheel files are zip archives, and zip archives put their file listing at the end. uv tries PEP 658 metadata first, falls back to HTTP range requests for the zip central directory, then full wheel download, then building from source. Each step is slower and riskier. The design makes the fast path cover 99% of cases. None of this requires Rust.”
“The paper focuses on accelerating Transformer inference using a layer-wise caching strategy.”
“LLM inference that gets faster as you use it. Our runtime-learning accelerator adapts continuously to your workload, delivering 500 TPS on DeepSeek-V3.1, a 4x speedup over baseline performance without manual tuning.”
