Your question is LLM Serving Bottlenecks and Mitigations. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
What are the primary bottlenecks in system design for LLM serving, and how do you mitigate them?
Discuss an end-to-end production serving design, including request routing, batching, model execution, memory management, autoscaling, and observability. Quantify relevant latency, throughput, and cost tradeoffs, and explain how you would validate improvements offline and online.
