Exactly! Not my area of expertise, heh.

There might even be niches in LLM land, like mamba SSM states, really tiny draft models, or other “cache” type things fitting into so much L3. This might already be the case with EPYC/TR stuff some homelab folks use.

It makes me wonder if the old AMD 6800 XT (with its 128MB of cache) would be good at this sort of “small model” thing.
