@ryanmpelletier's flawless 4x 3090 report (#584) is the cross-rig
validation the compose header required ('until a real >=4x 3090 host
validates it'): v0.24.0, no power caps, all x16, verify-full 9/9,
verify-stress needles clean to 240K, soak-continuous PASS, bench n=5.
Third concordant 4-card validation (after @alanspires 6xVFIO + @Whamp),
first on v0.24.0.
- registry + compose header: status experimental -> production (both, drift
guard green). No DEFAULTS[(qwen,vllm,multi4)] entry -> no resolver cascade;
promotion just moves it onto the actionable list. Quality is TP-invariant,
carried from the vllm/dual proxy (109/150); 4-card 8-pack is the open
confirmation (report.sh runs none).
- baselines.yml: vllm/qwen-27b-multi-fast gains its 4x3090-pcie submission
(tier: submitted; decode 74.76/90.83, prefill 1288->1175, KV pool
1.77M/6.77x, NIAH 240K). Submission-only by construction - the 2-card
reference rig can never produce a local 4-card row.
- BENCHMARKS.md: ryan's row (all-x16 74.8/90.8 beats @Whamp's mixed-lane
59/74 on the same fp8-KV config -> PCIe lane width matters for TP=4).
