BlendServe: Optimizing Offline Inference for Auto-regressive Large Models with Resource-aware Batching
Researchers have developed BlendServe, a new system designed to optimize offline inference for auto-regressive large language models. BlendServe combines resource overlapping and prefix sharing techniques to maximize throughput and reduce costs for latency-insensitive applications. Evaluations show that BlendServe can achieve up to a 1.44x throughput increase compared to existing standards like vLLM and SGLang. AI
