Host HiCache reservations were paying token-level free-slot scans when trying to preserve page contiguity. The allocator now keeps a lazy page-extent index so availability checks and contiguous-preferred allocations avoid materializing the full 220GB-equivalent free-slot metadata path. The companion benchmark models steady-state L2 churn near full occupancy, including burn-in and historical node-size effects, so LPF/RDMA descriptor quality can be separated from ETE noise. Constraint: CP HiCache host allocations are page-shaped, but existing callers may still read free_slots directly. Rejected: Sort and scan free_slots on each alloc_contiguous_preferred call | measured ms-level CPU overhead on 220GB-equivalent metadata. Rejected: Remove free_slots compatibility | storage/tests still rely on the public tensor surface. Confidence: medium Scope-risk: moderate Directive: Do not reintroduce per-allocation full free_slots scans on HostKVCache; preserve page-extent metadata or benchmark before changing allocator shape. Tested: Local py_compile for memory_pool_host.py, allocator benchmark, and related tests. Tested: Local test_cp_hicache_allocator_bench.py 10 passed. Tested: Remote g0034 test_hicache_controller_cp.py 67 passed; test_cp_hicache_allocator_bench.py 10 passed. Tested: Remote 220GB-equivalent host_churn benchmark: contiguous path reduced from ms-level to ~30-292us p50 depending on fragmentation. Not-tested: Full CUDA ETE run after allocator change. Not-tested: Production long-run fragmentation behavior under live traffic.

About
SGLang is a high-performance serving framework for large language models and multimodal models. It is designed to deliver low-latency and high-throughput inference across a wide range of setups, from a single GPU to large distributed clusters. Its core features include:
- Fast Runtime: Provides efficient serving with RadixAttention for prefix caching, a zero-overhead CPU scheduler, prefill-decode disaggregation, speculative decoding, continuous batching, paged attention, tensor/pipeline/expert/data parallelism, structured outputs, chunked prefill, quantization (FP4/FP8/INT4/AWQ/GPTQ), and multi-LoRA batching.
- Broad Model Support: Supports a wide range of language models (Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, GPT, Gemma, Mistral, etc.), embedding models (e5-mistral, gte, mcdse), reward models (Skywork), and diffusion models (WAN, Qwen-Image), with easy extensibility for adding new models. Compatible with most Hugging Face models and OpenAI APIs.
- Extensive Hardware Support: Runs on NVIDIA GPUs (GB200/B300/H100/A100/Spark), AMD GPUs (MI355/MI300), Intel Xeon CPUs, Google TPUs, Ascend NPUs, and more.
- Active Community: SGLang is open-source and supported by a vibrant community with widespread industry adoption, powering over 400,000 GPUs worldwide.
- RL & Post-Training Backbone: SGLang is a proven rollout backend used for training many frontier models, with native RL integrations and adoption by well-known post-training frameworks such as AReaL, Miles, slime, Tunix, verl and more.
