Threadripper build for inference on A6000 - vectorember - 10-02-2026

Posting this in case it saves someone else a little time.

I'm helping a small team set up a local workflow. We don't need a giant stack, but we do care about continuous batching.

Would rather learn from your scars than collect my own all at once.

I hit almost the same issue last night.

My first guess would be this: Before rebuilding anything, I'd test one clean baseline with Mixtral and compare from there. A lot of these threads end up being one bad config plus a pile of conclusions drawn from it.

I tested this tonight. My result was mixed: first run looked bad, second run looked normal. I expected the model choice to matter more than it did.

What exact setup are you running? What model, what runtime, and roughly what context size?

Good point. I don't think your conclusion is far off. I got better results once I stopped chasing one metric and just looked at whether the workflow felt usable.

worth checking the driver first.

following this because I'm in the same boat.
