Democratizing MoE inference on commodity GPUs with CoMoE

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.09424v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models relies heavily on Expert Parallelism, which generates intense inter-GPU communication. Consequently, state-of-the-art inference systems require high-bandwidth, P2P interconnects (e.g., NVLink) in datacenter GPUs to handle massive token routing, making deployment prohibitively expensive. Consumer GPUs offer comparable compute power at significantly lower cost, promising to democratize MoE inference for individuals and enable privacy-preserving local deployments. However, their bandwidth-limited (only weak PCIe bus bandwidth) and host-mediated interconnects (no P2P support) introduce severe communication bottlenecks. We present CoMoE, a communication-efficient MoE inference system that resolves this m
