ThunderAgent Boosts Agentic Inference Efficiency

ThunderAgent introduces a novel approach to agentic inference, significantly improving throughput and reducing latency in synthetic data generation. By treating each agent workflow as a program rather than isolated requests, it mitigates KV cache thrashing and balances load across nodes. This results in up to 2.5× higher throughput on single nodes and near-linear scaling on multi-node clusters. ThunderAgent's compatibility with existing inference optimizations makes it a practical choice for enhancing large-scale agentic workloads.
