New-ish inferencing engine Paiton. Post-FAQ. 💡We all know llama.cpp, vLLM, Radiance, SGLang, etc. fight over AMD inference performance. 🎯 But Paiton is doing something a little different. It doesn't replace vLLM. Instead, Paiton takes the model architecture and compiles it into highly optimized fused kernels specifically for AMD GPUs. Then regular vLLM loads those kernels and serves the model. Think: 🧠 Model ⬇️ ⚙️ Paiton compiler ⬇️ 🔥 AMD-optimized fused kernels ⬇️ 🚀 vLLM serving And the newest R9700 numbers are kinda nuts. Setup ... 1) ONE Radeon AI PRO R9700 2) Qwen3.8-27B MXFP4 Matc
