Scepsy is a serving system designed to efficiently schedule arbitrary multi‑LLM agentic workflows on GPU clusters. It leverages the observation that each LLM’s share of execution time remains relatively stable across requests, profiling LLMs under various parallelism levels to build an Aggregate LLM Pipeline that predicts throughput and latency. Using this predictor, Scepsy searches for optimal GPU allocations—balancing fractional GPU shares, tensor parallelism, and replica counts—and then heuristically places them on the cluster to reduce fragmentation and honor network topology, achieving up to 2.5× higher throughput and 1.0–3.3× lower latency compared to baseline approaches.

arXiv:2511. 15503v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: High-performance Host processors can integrate Processing-In-Memory (PIM) devices, which can accelerate memory-intensive kernels of Machine Learning (ML) models, including Large Language Models (LLMs), by leveraging the large memory bandwidth available at PIM cores.

The paper presents a method for distributing large language model inference across multiple Intel AI PCs by splitting the model into pipeline shards, each pre‑compiled into an OpenVINO graph. Three key techniques—beam_idx Gather to enable GPU optimizations, speculative decoding on stateful models, and interleaved micro‑batching—allow a two‑node Llama 3.1 8B INT4 pipeline to serve two users at 1.79× the throughput of a single‑node model, while a four‑node deployment can run a 70B model that no single PC can hold. The authors provide code, benchmark logs, and reproduction scripts on GitHub.
