Weight offloading refers to moving some of the model's layers or experts from VRAM to slower storage tiers such as memory or NVMe drives, swapping them in on demand at runtime, which sacrifices inference speed.

UnverifiedMemory-bound typically refers to insufficient GPU memory capacity, which requires offloading or model parallelism to address.78% similarUnverifiedCPU offloading (swapping VRAM to system RAM) is a core optimization strategy for running large AI models in low-VRAM environments; when GPU VRAM is insufficient, layers or tensors not currently involved in computation are temporarily offloaded to system memory.77% similarUnverifiedCPU offloading refers to moving some model layers from VRAM to system memory, with the CPU handling the computation, thereby breaking through VRAM capacity limits.77% similarUnverifiedoffloading类技术将参数在显存、内存、磁盘之间搬运会带来显著I/O开销，属于带宽受限（bandwidth-bound）推理的根本挑战76% similarUnverified分层存储卸载offloading实践在llama.cpp、DeepSpeed-Inference等工具中已有类似应用74% similar
