Put GPU1's idle ~11 GB buffer to work on the two KV-bound models that gained
live consumers from the worldtree migration (granite + the pooling models
under-use their util, so growing them is wasted):
- selene 0.13→0.17: KV 2.53→6.33 GiB, concurrency 1.27x→3.16x @32K (Domari judge)
- qwen36 0.32→0.34: KV 7.73→9.63 GiB, concurrency 2.92x→3.64x @131K (arbo judge +
worldtree actor/echo + gateway)
GPU1 free now ~5.6 GB (safe floor for single-service recreates).
selene: AtlaAI Selene-1-Mini-Llama-3.1-8B judge restored on vLLM after the
llama-swap teardown took its Q6_K GGUF offline. FP8 (dynamic --quantization
fp8; FP8 >= the validated Q6_K fidelity, and text-only Llama so no vision-
tower-noise risk; NVFP4's W4A4 too aggressive for a precision judge). GPU1
util 0.13 (8.51 GiB weights + 2.53 GiB KV, 32K ctx, 1.27x concurrency),
~11 GB GPU1 buffer left. Gateway selene-1-mini-8b → :8011 (shadows the *
wildcard that used to reach it via llama-swap). Judge smoke: scored an
unfaithful claim 1/5 correctly.
mistral-small-4: max-model-len 131072 → 262144 (full native 256K) for
novel-length consistency-checking. KV pool is util-bound (~862K tokens), so
256K costs no extra VRAM — max concurrency just drops to 3.29x at full length.
max-num-seqs 64 → 32 keeps the warmup transient flat (scales with seqs × len),
so it fits the tight GPU0 (free unchanged at 5.2 GB). Verified loaded + healthy.
