llama.cpp adds GPU cache for MoE models to boost performance

A pull request has been merged into the llama.cpp project, introducing a GPU cache for Mixture of Experts (MoE) models. This enhancement allows experts that do not fit entirely into VRAM to be kept in host memory, potentially leading to significant speedups for users with limited GPU resources. AI

IMPACT This optimization could enable more users to run larger MoE models on consumer hardware.

RANK_REASON This is a code contribution to an open-source project that improves performance for a specific type of model.
