Quail: open-source AI-SQL engine hits 1B+ input tokens/min on a single H100
charles_irl · x · 2026-09-25
Quail, a new open-source AI-SQL engine built with Modal, co-plans SQL queries and LLM inference to reach 1B+ input tokens/min on a single H100 for one query. The team argues AI-powered data operators represent a new class of inference workload, and that 'pushing down' work into the inference stack is a wide-open opportunity.
