### Notes
- If you are using older GPUs (NVIDIA V100, T4), please pick the correct triton compiler version to avoid some known bugs.
- For NVIDIA T4, please use `pip install "triton>=2.2.0"`.
- For NVIDIA V100, please install the [nightly](https://triton-lang.org/main/getting-started/installation.html) version.
- If you only need to use the OpenAI backend, you can avoid installing other dependencies by using `pip install "sglang[openai]"`
## Quick Start

Achieving a large batch size is the most important thing for attaining high throughput.
When the server is running at full load, look for the following in the log:
```[gpu_id=0] #running-req: 233, #token: 370959, token usage: 0.82, gen throughput (token/s): 4594.01, #queue-req: 417```

### Tune `--dp-size` and `--tp-size`
Data parallelism is better for throughput. When there is enough GPU memory, always favor data parallelism for throughput.
### (Minor) Tune `--max-prefill-tokens`, `--mem-fraction-static`, `--max-running-requests`.
If you see out of memory (OOM) errors, you can decrease these parameters.
If OOM happens during prefill, try to decrease `--max-prefill-tokens`.
If OOM happens during decoding, try to decrease `--max-running-requests`.

If OOM happens during decoding, try to decrease `--max-running-requests`.
You can also try to decrease `--mem-fraction-static`, which reduces the memory usage of the KV cache memory pool and helps both prefill and decoding.
### (Minor) Tune `--schedule-heuristic`
