It is designed to improve speed of mainly sparse LLMs. It won't allow faster inference with dense LLMs.
They show sparsity even in dense models like falcon. But I guess mixtral MoE is a better candidate

but there still many LLMs using the ReLU activation function, so this can still have a chance?
Splitting hot and cold neurons across cpu and gpu allows faster Inference when using larger models/higher quantisations. Demo shows 11x speedup over llama.cpp when using a 40b on a single 24gb GPU.

Wondering if this is something that can also be integrated into vllm.
