This improves the support for activity logging from the v1/responses and
v1/messages endpoints.
- add chat endpoint selection to Playground > Chat > Settings
- improve metrics extraction for streaming v1/messages and v1/responses
endpoints (tested with llama-server)
Fixes#742
Add a comprehensive performance monitoring system that collects CPU, memory, swap, load average, network IO, and GPU stats. Provides both a REST API for the UI and a Prometheus /metrics endpoint.
Backend changes:
- New internal/perf package with configurable interval-based stats collection
- GPU monitoring via LACT (Unix socket) and nvidia-smi fallback on Linux
- Ring buffer (internal/ring) for time-series stat storage
- Prometheus /metrics endpoint with all system and GPU metrics
- Moved LogMonitor to internal/logmon package
- New PerformanceConfig for hot-reloadable monitoring settings
- REST /api/performance endpoint replacing SSE streaming
UI changes:
- New Performance page with real-time charts for CPU, memory, GPU, and network
- Reusable PerformanceChart component
- LLAMA_SWAP_URL environment variable support
- Improved capture dialog display
Other:
- Example Grafana dashboard for Prometheus metrics
- monitor-test standalone binary
- Config schema and example updates
fixes#596
- inference handles to store an activity record for all inference endpoints
- add path, status code, and content type to Activities page
- toggle on/off columns no Activities page
- add configurable capture level for inference endpoints so large binary blobs are not stored in memory
- store captures in compressed binary format
The previous captures were saved uncompressed in memory. In agentic
workflows there can be many turns with each request containing the
previous context in the body with a lot of redundant data. Use zstd to
compress the request and response data before keeping a copy of memory.
Results:
- Average Percentage Saved: 73.19%
- Average Compression Factor: ~6.77:1
Keep request duration from being underreported when upstream timings
only cover part of the full request lifecycle.
- compare wall-clock and upstream timing durations
- keep token and throughput values from timings
- add regression coverage for underreported timings
fixes#602
Add saving request and response headers and bodies that go through
llama-swap in memory.
- captureBuffer added to configuration. Captures are enabled by default.
- 5MB of memory is allocated for req/response captures in a ring buffer.
Setting captureBuffer to 0 will disable captures.
- UI elements to view captured data added to Activity page. Includes
some
QOL features like json formatting and recombining SSE chat streams
- capture saving is done at the byte level and has minimal impact on
llama-swap performance
Fixes#464
Ref #503
This PR allows a single llama-swap to be the central proxy for models served by other inference servers. The peer servers can be another llama-swap or any API that supports the /v1/* inference endpoint.
Updates: #433, #299Closes: #296
* proxy: refactor metrics recording
- remove metrics_middleware.go as this wrapper is no longer needed. This
also eliminiates double body parsing for the modelID
- move metrics parsing to be part of MetricsMonitor
- refactor how metrics are recording in ProxyManager
- add MetricsMonitor tests
- improve mem efficiency of processStreamingResponse
- add benchmarks for MetricsMonitor.addMetrics
- proxy: refactor MetricsMonitor to be more safe handling errors
* proxy/config: create config package and migrate configuration
The configuration is become more complex as llama-swap adds more
advanced features. This commit moves config to its own package so it can
be developed independently of the proxy package.
Additionally, enforcing a public API for a configuration will allow
downstream usage to be more decoupled.
