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 HBM constraints.

Simple and boring is a valid answer.

worth checking the driver first.

A couple things I'd check first. Start by verifying the driver/runtime combo, then test with a smaller prompt, then look at prefill/decode split.

My first guess would be this: Before rebuilding anything, I'd test one clean baseline with Mixtral and compare from there.

What exact setup are you running? Are you testing this on GB200 or something else?

My first guess would be this: On dual 3090, the easiest win is often to back off the aggressive settings and see whether the problem survives. A lot of these threads end up being one bad config plus a pile of conclusions drawn from it.
