Raise tensor parallel size to 5
The current vLLM command uses tensor parallel size 1 and provides 243 GB, while 1,157.5 GB requires 5 same-GPU workers for 1,215 GB; raise --tensor-parallel-size to 5 if the model topology supports it.
Fit is always evaluated when model sizing is available. GPU rent, paid idle capacity, API crossover, and measured optimization appear only when their required evidence exists. When the API wins, the page says so.

Memory-fit rental floors
Each row uses an engine GPU fit when present; the remaining catalog GPUs apply this result's required memory to published VRAM. GPU count rises only enough to clear memory.
Engine memory-fit result
Memory fit: 27x NVIDIA A40 48 GB at 90% vLLM GPU memory utilization.
On-demand rates are preferred for each GPU; when none is captured, the lowest dated captured tier is used. The rentable GPU catalog is ranked by one-deployment monthly rent over the contract's 730.5-hour month, rounded to cents. Equal displayed prices share a rank. These are arithmetic floors, not provider offers. Throughput, replica demand, traffic capacity, topology support, and current availability are not established.
