KTransformers – Flexible LLM Inference Framework

KTransformers, a flexible LLM inference framework, enables deployment of 100B+ parameter models locally on a single RTX 5090 (32GB VRAM) using CPU/GPU heterogeneous computing without quantization. The framework achieves 2,540 tokens/s prefill speed and 27.6 tokens/s decode speed on a MiniMax-M2.1 FP8 model with a single RTX 5090 and dual AMD EPYC 9355 CPUs, delivering a 4.5x prefill speedup over llama.cpp Q8_0 quantization.

KTransformers uses CPU/GPU heterogeneous computing, leveraging CPU memory and compute

to deploy top-tier 100B+ parameter models locally with just a single RTX 5090 (32GB VRAM).

Fine-tune 100B+ parameter models with full parameters on consumer GPUs — no expensive multi-GPU clusters needed.

Why KTransformers? #

Built for developers who want to run large models on accessible hardware without sacrificing performance.

Heterogeneous Computing

Optimize inference using CPU, GPU, and other accelerators together. Run large models on consumer hardware.

Full-Precision Inference

No quantization needed. Preserve the original model precision to ensure uncompromised inference quality.

Full-Stack Inference & Fine-Tuning A complete local deployment toolchain from inference to fine-tuning, all-in-one for your development needs.

Multi-Model Support

Supports DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, Qwen, MiniMax and more mainstream large models for diverse use cases.

Powered by SGLang

GPU inference powered by SGLang, combining strengths for outstanding inference performance.
