① SA Source

Context Before

EP requires all-to-all communication, where every GPU needs to send tokens to every other GPU. This is extremely bandwidth hungry. Recall that Nvidia’s servers have two separate networking domains – the scale-up NVLink domain, and the Scale-out Domain, usually using InfiniBand or Ethernet as the networking protocol.

Evidence

This is roughly 7-10x the bandwidth of the InfiniBand/Ethernet based scale-out network

Context After

InfiniBand/RoCEv2 Ethernet (outside of the NVL72 rack): Typically 400-800 Gbit/s per GPU uni-directional (50-100 GB/s). Note that all our testing for Nvidia was conducted on InfiniBand based clusters.

② Atomic Claim

這大約是基於 InfiniBandEthernetscale-out network 頻寬的 7~10 倍。

⑤ Human Review

請在 Properties 逐項確認:

  • 原文 → Atomic Claim 是否忠實
  • Atomic Claim → Semantic Frame 是否忠實
  • Canonical Entity mapping 是否正確
  • Epistemic mode 是否保留原文語氣
  • 最後選擇 review_action
