Because TFA never bothered to define it:

Broadband Network Gateway (BNG)[1]

Thanks! "OLT" was also new to me. In case others find it helpful:

> OLT = Optical Line Terminal.

> In ISP fiber (typically GPON/EPON) infrastructure, it’s the provider-side device at the central office/headend that terminates and controls the passive optical network: it connects upstream into the ISP’s aggregation/core network and downstream via fiber (through splitters) to many customers’ ONTs/ONUs, handling PON line control, provisioning, QoS, and traffic aggregation.


Thanks.. was reading the article like WTF is "BNG"

Is it the FTTX equivalent of a BRAS?

Yes, exactly. BRAS is functionally the same as BNG.

So what is BRAS?

Getting ~150 tok/s on an empty context with a 24 GB 7900XTX via llama.cpp's Vukan backend.


Again, you're using some 3rd party quantisations, not the weights supplied by Nvidia (which don't fit in 24GB).


It was right there[1] in the assembly video.

If only :(

Make sure to check the "annual powered-on hours" entry in the spec sheet though, sometimes it can be significantly less than ~8766 hours.


Probably a good time to mention systemd automount. This will auto mount and unmount drives as needed. You save on your energy bill but the trade off is that first read takes longer as drives need to mount.

You need 2 files, the mount file and the automount file. Keep this or something similar as a skeleton file somewhere and copy over as needed

  # /etc/systemd/system/full-path-drive-name.mount
  [Unit]
  Description=Some description of drive to mount
  Documentation=man:systemd-mount(5) man:systemd.mount(5)

  [Mount]
  # Find with `lsblk -f`
  What=/dev/disk/by-uuid/1abc234d-5efg-hi6j-k7lm-no8p9qrs0ruv
  # See file naming scheme
  Where=/full/path/drive/name
  # https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/storage_administration_guide/sect-using_the_mount_command-mounting-options#sect-Using_the_mount_Command-Mounting-Options
  Options=defaults,noatime
  # Fails if mounting takes longer than this (change as appropriate)
  TimeoutSec=1m

  [Install]
  # Defines when to load drive in bootup. See `man systemd.special`
  WantedBy=multi-user.target


  # /etc/systemd/system/full-path-drive-name.automount
  [Unit]
  Description=Automount system to complement systemd mount file
  Documentation=man:systemd.automount(5)
  Conflicts=umount.target
  Before=umount.target

  [Automount]
  Where=/full/path/drive/name
  # If not accessed for 15 minutes drive will spin down (change as appropriate)
  TimeoutIdleSec=15min

  [Install]
  WantedBy=local-fs.target


Late reply but this gave me a chuckle as a (I guess old) unix guy. Sun had automount in the late 80s and afaik it/autofs/auto.master stuff is largely unchanged (in usage, maybe not in implementation).
