We recently dropped-in VictoriaLogs for an old rsyslog setup. Extremely easy to deploy and admin, integrates nicely with Grafana. Definitely recommend doing this and moving to structured logging formats if you aren't already / are

It's not totally surprising given the economics of LLM operation. LLMs, when idle, are much more resource-heavy than an idle web service. To achieve acceptable chat response latency, the models need to be already loaded in memory, and
