A self-hosted LLM platform built on a MacBook Pro M1 Pro can encounter issues beyond standard HTTP 200 responses, such as silently truncated prompts or empty answers. To address this, the author developed a monitoring system using Grafana and PostgreSQL by directly querying the LiteLLM request logs. This approach allows for the tracking of crucial metrics like time to first token and decode speed, which are essential for understanding LLM performance beyond simple request rates and error counts.
