2-4K GPUs can serve 100T tokens daily, sparking efficiency debate
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-08-22
Discussion notes that with efficient KV caches like DSv4 Flash, only 2,000-4,000 GPUs are needed to serve 100T tokens daily. The view asserts that modern LLMs are extremely efficient and require surprisingly little intelligence to perform software engineering at a superhuman level, a fact that will cause shock when widely realized.
