ROCm version that finally behaves - thetaember38 - 10-08-2026

Did a bit of testing and thought I'd post the result here.

Short version: TensorRT-LLM behaved well for me, but only after I stopped ignoring tokens/sec.

Happy to post more details if anyone wants them.

Maybe, but I had the opposite result. I wouldn't optimize around that first. On my side the bigger swing came from the runtime and not the model.

That matches what I was seeing. I don't think your conclusion is far off. Worth rechecking your defaults though, because one bad assumption can make the rest of the thread look confusing.

What worked for me was pretty simple. Start by verifying the driver/runtime combo, then test with a smaller prompt, then look at tokens/sec. Once you know the plain path works, then add the faster path back in piece by piece.

following this because I'm in the same boat.

Interesting, I hadn't tried that. The pattern around INT4 has been pretty similar for me.

Interesting, I hadn't tried that. I ended up in about the same place using SGLang. Turns out 'just one more test' was a lie.

What exact setup are you running? Are you testing this on B200 or something else?


Re: ROCm version that finally behaves - mintquill - 10-14-2026

Ran a quick check on my box. My result was mixed: first run looked bad, second run looked normal. The main thing that moved was latency, not quality. I keep promising myself this is the last rebuild.
