Did a bit of testing and thought I'd post the result here.
I tried this with DeepSeek using TensorRT-LLM on 4090. The headline result was better than I expected, but NVFP4 still ended up being the limiting factor.
Happy to post more details if anyone wants them.
This is mostly for local work rather than public serving.
If I had to summarize the lesson so far, it would be that clean setup and observability beat clever guesses.
