Thought I'd post a small recipe because a lot of threads ask similar things.

Just sharing a setup that ended up working reasonably well: Llama, PyTorch, M3 Max, with a lot of attention on continuous batching.

Maybe useful as a starting point for newer folks.

Maybe, but I had the opposite result. The reported numbers can look compelling, but in ordinary usage I didn't see the same benefit. Could be a workload difference, but I wouldn't generalize too fast from one setup.

A couple questions before I guess too hard. Are you testing this on 5090 or something else?

What worked for me was pretty simple. Before rebuilding anything, I'd test one clean baseline with Phi and compare from there.

My first guess would be this: Start by verifying the driver/runtime combo, then test with a smaller prompt, then look at NVFP4. Once you know the plain path works, then add the faster path back in piece by piece.

Ran a quick check on my box. My result was mixed: first run looked bad, second run looked normal. I expected the model choice to matter more than it did.

Interesting, I hadn't tried that. That matches what I saw on Threadripper box. The biggest change for me was simplifying the stack instead of adding one more optimization layer.
