Disaggregation also enables independent scaling and optimization of each phase. With separate nodes, each phase can be tuned independently: different parallelism strategies, different batch sizes, and different memory allocation ratios. The ratio of prefill to decode nodes can also be matched to the workload’s input-output length ratio. For instance, prefill-dominated workloads (long input, short output e.g., summarization, RAG, agentic coding with large context windows) allocate more prefill instances. Decode-dominated workloads (short input, long output e.g., chain-of-thought reasoning, long-form generation) allocate more decode instances. Workloads with high cache hit rates also tend toward more decode, since reused KV cache entries from shared system prompts or multi-turn conversation history skip prefill entirely.

Evidence

This decouples the inference engine from any specific transfer protocol and enables disaggregation across heterogeneous hardware where prefill and decode instances may span different device types or interconnects

② Atomic Claim

這使 inference engine 不必綁定特定 transfer protocol,也能支援 heterogeneous hardware 的 disaggregation,讓 prefilldecode instances 跨不同 device types 或 interconnects。
