GPU Efficiency Without Destroying Headroom
GPU efficiency balances expensive accelerator utilization against the capacity reserve required to meet SLOs.
Steady-state target is 70–80% with higher short-term utilization allowed during known batch windows.
What utilization target meets both cost and reliability goals?
REMEMBERIdle capacity can be an intentional reliability feature.
