TensorRT-LLM worth the setup time

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

I'm not trying to build a perfect architecture diagram. I just want a sane starting point around vLLM and M3 Max.

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

For context, I'm not chasing leaderboard numbers. I mostly want the system to feel consistent day to day.

Not sure I agree there. I've seen people blame router policy when the real issue was much more mundane. Could be a workload difference, but I wouldn't generalize too fast from one setup.
