Context Before
SRAM and Memory Hierarchy
We have written about the role of SRAM in the memory hierarchy, but the quick recap is that SRAM is very fast (low latency and high bandwidth) but this comes at the expense of density and therefore cost.
Evidence
SRAM machines such as Groq’s LPU therefore enable very fast time to first token and tokens per second per user but at the expense of total throughput, as their limited SRAM capacity quickly gets saturated by weights, with little left over for KVcache that grows as more users are batched. GPUs win for throughput and cost as we have shown. This is why Nvidia has decided to combine these architectures to get the best of both worlds: accelerate parts of decode that are more latency sensitive and are not as memory heavy on a low-latency SRAM-heavy chip like the LPU, while memory hungry attention is performed on GPUs that come with a lot of fast (but not SRAM fast) memory capacity.

⑤ V2 Draft(需要修正時直接編輯)
Inline repair
只編輯以下三個 Draft 區塊。完成後將
review_action設為REQUEST_REPAIR,再手動執行 Repair Preview。
執行腳本前,Draft 不會寫入 Claim Store 或 Graph。
V2 Atomic Claim Draft
相較 LPU 這類以 SRAM 為核心的機器,GPU 在成本上更具優勢。
