Lenovo team tests inference performance of compute-storage fusion pooled system
The Lenovo team tested the inference performance of a compute-storage fusion pooled system. Xiao Limin, Chief Scientist of Lenovo Group, proposed a compute-storage fusion pooled system that combines memory pooling with near-memory computing, targeting two major pain points: insufficient KV Cache capacity and high GPU memory access overhead. Tests show that memory pool offloading reduces first-token latency by 3.5x, KV cross-instance sharing achieves up to 12~28x speedup compared with full recomputation, offloading attention computation reduces decoding latency by 2.5x, and end-to-end throughput improves by 6~20x as context length grows. The team's next step is to evolve from G2.5 to G1.5 with the help of supernode scale-up interconnect.
