Open-Model Systems Bottlenecks

Success criterion

The main bottlenecks slowing model research infrastructure can be measured and improved.

Focus

  • Latency.
  • Throughput.
  • Batching.
  • KV cache.
  • Quantization.
  • FlashAttention.
  • PyTorch profiling.
  • Basic Triton kernel experiments.
  • Cost/latency/quality trade-offs.

Expected outputs

  • systems_efficiency module.
  • Profiling and optimization comparison table.
  • Report: practical systems bottlenecks in open-model experiments.

End-of-month decision

Which bottlenecks most affect experiment velocity and cost?
