Multiple Low-Rank Adapters (Multi-LoRAs) are gaining popularity for task-specific Large Language Model (LLM) applications. For multi-LoRA serving, caching hot KV caches and LoRA adapters in high bandwidth memory of accelerations can improve inference performance. However, existing Multi-LoRA inference systems fail to optimize serving performance like Time-To-First-Toke (TTFT), neglecting usage dependencies when caching LoRAs and KVs. We therefore propose FASTLIBRA, a Multi-LoRA caching system to optimize the serving performance. FASTLIBRA comprises a dependency-aware cache manager and a performance-driven cache swapper. The cache manager maintains the usage dependencies between LoRAs and KV caches during the inference with a unified caching pool. The cache swapper determines the swap-in or out of LoRAs and KV caches based on a unified cost model, when the HBM is idle or busy, respectively. Experimental results show that ELORA reduces the TTFT by 63.4% on average, compared to state-of-the-art works.

As model sizes in machine learning continue to scale, distributed training is necessary to accommodate model weights within each device and to reduce training time. However, this comes with the expense of increased communication overhead due to the exchange of gradients and activations, which become the critical bottleneck of the end-to-end training process. In this work, we motivate the design of multi-dimensional networks within machine learning systems as a cost-efficient mechanism to enhance overall network bandwidth. We also identify that optimal bandwidth allocation is pivotal for multi-dimensional networks to ensure efficient resource utilization. We introduce LIBRA, a framework specifically focused on optimizing multi-dimensional fabric architectures. Through case studies, we demonstrate the value of LIBRA, both in architecting optimized fabrics under diverse constraints and in enabling co-optimization opportunities.
