vLLM officially reports that it matches DeepInfer, DeepSeek's own engine for DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash, on DeepSeek's decode configuration across batch sizes 8 to 256 — running DEP32 against DeepInfer's EP64DP64. DeepInfer was originally built on vLLM; by integrating DeepSeek's open-source kernels and extensively optimizing prefill and decode, vLLM now tracks DeepInfer's performance curves. The attached chart compares decode and prefill throughput-latency for both engines.
