LLM Serving from Scratch — vLLM, Continuous Batching, and Not Letting the GPU Idle
Getting a model to run and getting it to handle a hundred users are different problems.

This walks through why — arithmetic intensity, continuous batching, PagedAttention — and why throughput and latency can never both win.
