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:2607. 13332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training large language models at the multi-billion to trillion parameter scale is confined to datacenters, where data-parallel (DP) and model-parallel (MP) techniques presume homogeneous accelerators, high-speed interconnects, and a single orchestrating entity.
