The paper introduces FairInference, a system that guarantees token-level latency isolation for well-behaved clients in multi-tenant LLM serving. It provides a δ-token fairness guarantee, ensuring that a token generated in isolation within time d will be produced within d + δ in a shared environment. The approach enforces per-token deadlines, bounds GPU compute sharing delays, and accounts for shared KV cache overhead, leading to reduced latency spikes and higher overall throughput compared to existing LLM serving systems.
