multimodal local stack that feels real - latentpeak22 - 09-20-2026
Thought I'd post a small recipe because a lot of threads ask similar things.
This isn't revolutionary, but the combination of SGLang and mini PC felt surprisingly usable once I tuned around consumer GPUs.
Maybe useful as a starting point for newer folks.

Can you fill in a bit more context? Is this local-only or are you routing anything externally?

A couple things I'd check first. On B200, 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.

That matches what I was seeing. That matches what I saw on 4090.

Thanks, that helps. I ended up in about the same place using llama.cpp. Worth rechecking your defaults though, because one bad assumption can make the rest of the thread look confusing.

I'd approach it in a boring order. If you're on MLX, I'd confirm the version first and then reduce variables until the behavior is obvious. Once you know the plain path works, then add the faster path back in piece by piece.
