vllm-exl3 v0.3.0 is LIVE with custom native CUDA kernels for 2-bit EXL3 on NVIDIA DGX Spark GB10. GLM-5.3-Flash-EXL3-K2 jumped from 16.9 → 24.6 tok/s average single-stream decode, a +45.6% gain. Coding hit 27.6 tok/s, +85.6%. 🚀 The previous ExLlamaV3-backed path inside vLLM was leaving a lot of GB10 bandwidth... on the table. So I rewrote the hot path specifically for EXL3 on Blackwell sm_121: → in-register Trellis dequantization → native fused MoE decode → power-of-two chunked prefill GEMM → parallel NVMe pre-warm Then I tested it side-by-side on physical DGX Spark hardware using my GLM-5.3-Flash-EXL3-K2 pack and live vLLM HTTP streaming. 🚀 𝗗𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗗𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗚𝗛𝗣𝗨𝗧 Single-stream C1: Coding 14.9 → 27.6 tok/s +85.6% Prose 13.7 → 24.6 tok/s +79.3% Reasoning 18.9 → 25.1 tok/s +32.7% Summary 17.1 → 25.6 tok/s +50.0% Format 16.3 → 24.0 tok/s +47.7% Average: 16.9 → 24.6 tok/s 𝗡𝗘𝗧 𝗚𝗔𝗜𝗡: +45.6% ⏱️ 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧-𝗧𝗢𝗞𝗘𝗡 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗦𝗦 Coding TTFT: 2,344 ms → 859 ms That is a 63.3% reduction, or about 2.7× faster to first token. Follow-up turn with prefix cache hit: 5,608 ms → 3,588 ms 1.56× faster. ⚡ 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗗 𝗢𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗣𝗨 40 routed-MoE layers: 19.9 ms → 11.5 ms per token Per-layer MoE compute: 497 μs → 287.8 μs That removes 8.4 ms of MoE compute from every generated token. Total per-step wall time: 59.2 ms → 40.6 ms -31.4% The key is `p2b_fused_moe`. Instead of expanding EXL3 weights through a traditional intermediate path, the new kernel performs Trellis dequantization in-register while executing the routed expert computation. The weights stay compressed until the GPU actually needs them. 🔥 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗚𝗢𝗧 𝗔 𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗘 𝗣𝗔𝗧𝗛 𝗧𝗢𝗢 The new `exl3_gemm` uses power-of-two chunked prefill GEMM. Measured: 7.85 TFLOPS 13.0× faster than the legacy prefill kernel 1,875 tok/s cold prefill sustained across 65K context 💾 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗢𝗢𝗧 𝗣𝗔𝗧𝗛 𝗡𝗘𝗘𝗗𝗘𝗗 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞 𝗧𝗢𝗢 Loading a ~91 GiB model is part of the user experience. Standard shard loading is mostly serial. The updated recipe parallelizes NVMe pre-warm across 8 workers so the storage controller gets used properly instead of feeding a ~100 GiB model one shard at a time. That turns boot-time storage into another optimization target instead of something we simply accept. 💡 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗚𝗦 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗛 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗚 `--long-prefill-token-threshold 1024` Prevents giant prefill chunks from monopolizing step budgets and starving parallel decode sessions. `--enable-prefix-caching` Avoids paying for the same conversational prefix again on follow-up turns. 📦 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗜𝗦 𝗢𝗣𝗘𝗡 vllm-exl3: GLM-5.3-Flash one-Spark recipe: Model: This is why I like working at the kernel level. The model did not change. The quant did not change. The hardware did not change. The execution path did. 16.9 → 24.6 tok/s. 🛠️ vLLM turboderpshow more
