The latest update to ggml (b9820) introduces significant performance improvements for CUDA by reducing synchronization requirements. These changes optimize tensor operations and async copies.

A new native C++ inference framework built on ggml that consolidates 12 audio models into a single runtime. It significantly outperforms Python-based inference, achieving up to 5x speedups on CUDA.
cuTile Rust 引入了一種基於 Tile 的程式設計模型,利用 Rust 的所有權和借用檢查機制來確保 GPU 核心的記憶體安全與無資料競爭。研究團隊開發了 Grout 推論引擎,在 Qwen3 模型上展現了與 vLLM 和 SGLang 相當的效能。

Redis founder has stepped in to create a dedicated inference engine for DeepSeek V4. This tool enables running the model locally on Mac computers. It brings efficient local LLM inference to Apple hardware.
ZINC is a new LLM inference engine written in Zig, enabling 35B models on $550 AMD GPUs via Vulkan. It loads GGUF models, achieves 7.1 tok/s on RDNA4, and addresses AMD consumer GPU gaps. Repo at github.com/zolotukhin/zinc.
ik_llama.cpp fork delivers 26x faster prompt evaluation (43 to 1,122 tok/s) and 3.5x generation speed on Qwen 3.5 27B Q4_K_M using RTX PRO 4000. Fused GDN kernels reduce graph splits from 34 to 2 for full GPU utilization. Pre-built Windows binaries available as drop-in replacement.

Krasis LLM Runtime optimized for GPU-only prefill and decode, achieving 8.9x prefill and 4.7x decode over llama.cpp on single 5090. Supports large Qwen models like 122B-A10B with minimal RAM. Single-line GitHub install, OpenAI-compatible server planned.

Atlas, a pure Rust LLM inference engine with custom CUDA kernels for GB10's SM121 architecture, delivers 102 stable tok/s on Qwen3.5-35B-A3B, 2.3x faster than vLLM. It features 2-minute cold starts, tiny 2GB image, and excels on Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B at 82 tok/s. Solves DGX Spark's software issues for desktop petaflop compute.
Hipfire is a new inference engine tailored for all AMD GPUs, featuring mq4 quantization. The creator shares quantized models on Hugging Face. Benchmarks on Localmaxxing reveal major speedups for RDNA3 and older cards.
