Kimi K3 Parallelism Strategy: Integrating ViT into the Pipeline Diagram
nrehiew_ · x · 2026-07-29
The author analyzes Kimi K3's parallelism strategy, noting the use of PP, EP, Zero 2, and CP. The pipeline diagram suggests standard 1F1B rather than Dual Pipe, with standard overlapped EP all-to-all.
Notably, the author highlights this as the first time seeing a ViT included in a pipeline diagram, indicating a deep architectural integration of the vision encoder.
