<p>When running on a GPU, dense models are shaping up to be the best way due to two things:<p>- Maximum intelligence per VRAM (you dont have much)<p>- Dense models can benefit from MTP to get an almost 2x speedup in decode (ie, a 27b dense model with mtp decodes at about the same speed as a MoE model with 14b active param model would). This is important because local llm rarely has parallel streams to batch together.<p>When running on large unified memory like Strix Halo or Spark Dgx, MoE models are usually best:<p>- You can get similar intelligence as a smaller dense model with fewer active params (to compensate for the slower memory) by throwing ram at the problem.</p>

<p>>You don't need "very much" expert overlap to see aggregate gains at scale, you just need some of it<p>I'm not sure what you are claiming. Decode is bottle-necked by memory bandwidth. To see a speed up of 2x, you have to ensure each expert weight memory fetch can be used by 2 parallel streams. What exactly is the average factor you are claiming for 5x parallel streams (due to "birthday paradox" factors)? The Birthday paradox isn't really relevant here. It's about coverage, not parallelism.<p>> Memory for context is an issue, but recent models like DeepSeek V4 use very little of it even at relatively large contexts.<p>This is not true.</p>

<p>This is just wishful thinking.<p>For prefill, it's really easy to batch MoE and get really good tk/s, even on a single stream.<p>For decode, you will run into the problem that:<p>1) you need more parallel requests which means more memory for context<p>2) 5 requests will not give you very much expert overlap on parallel requests</p>

<p>> I hear "I'm not anti immigrant, I'm anti illegal immigrant" a lot. To which there is an easy solution: increase the number of legal immigrants we allow.<p>Being "anti illegal immigrant" doesn't have to imply you let in whoever wants as long as they follow some process. You are taking away the agency of the people to select its immigrants.</p>

<p>The following things are not in contradiction:<p>1) Someone can be against illegal immigration and for legal immigration.<p>2) That same person's idea about who should immigrate to the country may exclude most or all of the people who are currently immigrating illegally.<p>It's not like you can only be against illegal immigration because they forgot to fill out some form. Legal immigration has a component of deciding who gets in.</p>

<p>> 1. SWE-bench Verified is now saturated at 93.9% (congrats Anthropic), but anyone who hasn't reached that number yet still has more room for growth.<p>But if some or all players are bench-maxing it, then it becomes a much less useful metric for comparison.<p>Also, this doesn't address what OpenAI says about the test suite disallowing valid solutions.</p>
