Two figures inserted into V2_DEEP_ANALYSIS §4.5 and §4.4 respectively, to
visually rebut the two critic-agent claims that we argued in prose were
design intent, not deficiencies.
(1) gpu_utilization.png -- §4.5 "P GPU is wasted 90% of the time"
Two-panel side-by-side:
Left (request count view, the naive reading): KVC P = 328 reqs (7.4%),
KVC D = ~1450 each, DP = ~1100 each. P "looks idle."
Right (compute work view, the honest reading): KVC P does 1.07M tokens
of prefill, comparable to each KVC D worker's ~0.80M. P is a
low-frequency high-cost safety net, not idle capacity.
Bonus finding: KVC's total compute (3.47M tokens across 4 GPUs) is 33%
LESS than DP's (5.17M). Same GPUs, less work done. That's the affinity
win.
(2) cache_efficiency.png -- §4.4 "Cache concentration is not policy win"
Two-panel side-by-side. The setup: KVC has 27% LESS total KV pool
(276K vs 351K tokens) yet caches MORE per request.
Left (cache hit rate vs turn number): KVC's session-affinity lets
hit rate accumulate with turns; DP's hash + radix-LRU causes
a mid-turn drift around turns 8-25 where KVC = 97.0% vs DP
= 95.8% (1.24pp gap). Shows mechanism, not just outcome.
Right (ECDF of per-request uncached tokens, log x): KVC's distribution
concentrates near zero (50% < 187 tokens), DP's is spread
(50% < 781 tokens). At uncached = 500 tokens threshold, KVC
has 74% of requests below, DP has 31%.
→ smaller pool, better retention, less per-request work. Direct empirical
rebuttal to "fragmentation is architectural, not policy."

Agentic PD Hybrid
这个项目是在 SGLang xPyD 上做一个最小实验框架，用来判断：
面向 agentic coding workload 的 session-aware / KV-cache-aware P/D routing，能不能降低端到端延迟。
更完整但仍然简洁的说明见 docs/PROJECT_OVERVIEW.md。
当前做了什么
- 启动单机 SGLang P/D 栈。
- 回放 Ali coding agent trace，并记录 request-level metrics。
- 支持
default、sticky、kv-aware路由策略。 - 支持
pd-disaggregation、kvcache-centric、pd-colo对比。 - 支持小 append、多轮 session 的 micro-benchmark trace。
- 维护了基于 SGLang
v0.5.10的本地 patch，放在third_party/sglang。
环境
统一使用 uv：
uv sync
默认模型路径：
~/models/Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct
当前主要测试环境是单机 8 GPU，约束是 prefill + decode <= 8。
常用命令
生成小 append trace：
uv run agentic-pd-hybrid make-small-append-trace \
--output outputs/smoke-hotcap-30k-1k-256.jsonl \
--session-count 4 \
--turns-per-session 3 \
--initial-input-length 30000 \
--append-input-length 1000 \
--output-length 256
跑 live benchmark：
uv run agentic-pd-hybrid benchmark-live \
--trace outputs/micro-serveable-varturn-30k-1k-256-20260424T0756Z.jsonl \
--output-root outputs/live-serveable-varturn-30k-1k-256-hotcap \
--mechanism kvcache-centric \
--policy kv-aware \
--kvcache-admission-mode worker \
--prefill-workers 1 \
--decode-workers 1 \
--prefill-gpu-ids 0 \
--decode-gpu-ids 1 \
--transfer-backend mooncake \
--target-duration-s 2000 \
--session-sample-rate 1.0 \
--min-turns 2 \
--time-scale 1 \
--concurrency-limit 1000
只回放并写 metrics：
uv run agentic-pd-hybrid replay \
--trace path/to/trace.jsonl \
--policy kv-aware \
--mechanism pd-disaggregation \
--router-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
--output outputs/replay.jsonl
输出
每次 replay/benchmark 会写：
- request metrics：
request-metrics.jsonl - 汇总结果：
request-metrics.jsonl.summary.json
重点看：
- E2E latency
- TTFT / TPOT
- execution mode
- cached tokens
- KV transfer blocks
- error
维护约定
- 项目代码改动：
feat:/fix:/docs:。 - SGLang 改动：
feat(sglang): .../fix(sglang): ...。 third_party/sglang的基线是 clean SGLangv0.5.10snapshot。- 不提交
outputs/、日志、__pycache__、虚拟环境。
