Unlocking asynchronicity in continuous batching

This post details the implementation of asynchronous batching for Hugging Face Inference Endpoints. It explains how to leverage CUDA streams and events to run CPU-bound batch preparation tasks concurrently with GPU-bound inference computations. The post covers the concepts of synchronous vs. asynchronous batching, the role of CUDA streams and events in managing concurrency, and the practical application of these techniques to reduce GPU idle time and improve overall inference throughput.
