Optimizing Large Model Inference Architecture for the Agent Era: Engineering Practices and Challenges
The article analyzes the architectural challenges of large‑model inference in the Agent era—such as memory‑intensive MLA structures, MoE communication overhead, exploding KV‑Cache size, and tool‑call accuracy—and presents a series of engineering solutions including hierarchical KV‑Cache pooling, sequence parallelism, offloading strategies, and chip‑level adaptations to achieve higher throughput and lower token costs.
