Key insights

This compare does not support the conclusion that the tuned config lacks generalization. Across the full 7-day slice, tuned wins every directly comparable window.
The two incomparable days are not execution failures. Baseline completed probing but never found a single feasible sampling_u under the target SLO, while tuned still found feasible operating points.
The tuned TP=2, DP=1 shape is materially more robust than the TP=1, DP=1 baseline for this 0~8k chat bucket.
The weekend windows do not break the result. 2026-03-14 is another clear tuned win, and even on 2026-03-15, where baseline is relatively stronger than other days, tuned still wins by about 1.90x on req/s/gpu.
The throughput gap remains large even after normalizing by GPU count, so this is not just a raw-card-count artifact.

Recommendation

For qwen27b chat 0~8k, keep using the tuned TP=2, DP=1 serving shape as the default candidate over the TP=1, DP=1 baseline, and treat cross-day robustness as confirmed on the full 7-day window set.
