PyTorch · x · 2026-10-20
PyTorch relayed a thread by simonmo and sparkycollier: over the past three days, AMD, NVIDIA, and Google each contributed significant performance improvements to the open-source inference framework vLLM, measured with SemiAnalysis' standard benchmark on K3. The inferact team led and shepherded many of the optimizations.
It's presented as a snapshot of the open intelligence ecosystem: multiple companies investing engineering time upstream to improve critical open-source inference software.
