    Does anyone know how their KV cache sync mechanism compares to newer P2P communication layers like nixl, uccl p2p, etc.? The authors mention that NCCL and Ray initialization were t…

    What kind of NCCL testing are you thinking about? Always curious what’s hardest to validate in people’s setups.

    Even if you have experience with DWARF, I think you will learn something new from the book. I work on CNCF Pixie, which uses DWARF for eBPF uprobes and dynamic instrumentation. Whi…

    Yep, that's correct. It uses eBPF upprobes to attach to the SSL_write/SSL_read functions.
