RAM Coffers: NUMA-Aware LLM Inference — Why Hardware Topology Still Matters

The article discusses how NUMA memory topology, not just VRAM, is a critical bottleneck for LLM inference on multi-socket servers, causing significant throughput degradation. RustChain's RAM Coffers solves this by detecting NUMA topology and optimizing memory allocation and thread pinning for predictable, enhanced performance.
