How vLLM‑Kunlun Unlocks Peak LLM Performance on Kunlun XPU
This article details the technical challenges of adapting the open‑source vLLM inference framework to Baidu's Kunlun XPU, outlines four major performance bottlenecks, and presents a multi‑dimensional optimization roadmap—including custom plugins, operator fusion, INT8 quantization, and CUDA‑Graph techniques—that together boost throughput by up to 8% and narrow the gap with leading GPU hardware.
