Basically I kept needing an inference engine that could stream weights in and out as needed in an LRU manner. So I ended up vibe coding this thing that accepts a `--vram-budget` and stays under it (mostly). It turns out moving mmap'd bytes in and out of VRAM is way cheap compared to compute. Coupled with some pipelining/double-buffering, I almost always end up compute bound not memory bound. Granted I use way smaller models heh.
