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 prefill/decode split.
Would rather learn from your scars than collect my own all at once.
My use case is pretty ordinary: local chat, some document work, and occasional batch jobs.
If I had to summarize the lesson so far, it would be that clean setup and observability beat clever guesses.
