vLLM tops the Artificial Analysis leaderboard 🎉 vLLM tops @ArtificialAnlys on DeepSeek V3.2 and ranks among the top deployments of MiniMax-M2.5 and Qwen 3.5 397B. The leading deployments of these models are now open source. How each result was built: 🔹 DeepSeek V3.2 — Aggressive op fusion across the attention path collapsed ~33 per-layer kernels down toward ~10. 🔹 MiniMax-M2.5 — Custom EAGLE3 draft trained against the target's own token distribution via TorchSpec, plus a custom QK-norm fusion for MiniMax's TP-aware attention. 🔹 Qwen 3.5 397B — Targeted fusions plus a QK-norm fix for Qwen's linear-attention path. Every optimization is in vLLM main or on its way upstream. Huge thank you to @inferact, @digitalocean, @nvidia, @RedHat_AI, and the vLLM community 🙏 Full breakdown 👇
