How many times do I have to say this? Ollama, llamacpp, and many other projects are slower than vLLM/sglang. vLLM is a much superior inference engine and is fully supported by the only LLM frontends that matter (sillytavern).

The community getting obsessed with Ollama has done huge damage to the field, as it's ineffecient compared to vLLM. Many people can get far more tok/s than they think they could if only they knew the right tools.

Last I looked vLLM didn't work on a Mac.

Afaik vllm is for concurrent serving with batched inference for higher throughput, not single-user inference. I doubt inference throughput is higher with single prompts at a time than Ollama. Update: this is a good Intro to continuous batching in llm inference: https://www.anyscale.com/blog/continuous-batching-llm-infere...

It is much faster on single prompts than ollama. 3X is not unheard of
