-<p>The 4090 box shares its GPU with a qwen LLM &mdash; bend kernels burn SMs for milliseconds then release; qwen keeps its weights resident; 24 GB VRAM holds both. Cluster aggregate (sequential round-robin dispatcher): 1.6&times; at 200 × <code>n=1k</code> mod-mul, 1.2&times; at 6 × <code>n=100k</code>; an async dispatcher unlocks the remaining 2&times; headroom.</p>
+<p>Multi-host fan-out was validated at 1.6&times; aggregate throughput on small workloads, but routine round-robin against the 4090 would steal VRAM from qwen. Caller opts in explicitly when a workload justifies fan-out: <code>(bend-set-workers! '((&quot;3090-ai.foxhop.net&quot; . 9091) (&quot;ai.foxhop.net&quot; . 9092)))</code> brings the 4090 online for that call.</p>
