open-jev-fast
Drop-in faster backend for Open-Jev-27B using custom CUDA kernels, a prefix tree and CUDA graphs: about 6x lower JevBench latency.
Overview
OpenJev-Fast is a faster local inference backend for Open-Jev, the open typed-decision model. It is a drop-in replacement for Open-Jev's own server with the same request format and the same Open-Jev-27B-v1.1 model on Qwen3.8-27B in bf16 with no quantization. It replaces the forward pass with hand-written CUDA kernels (including Gated DeltaNet and tree-attention kernels), a prefix tree that computes shared prompt text once, tuned matrix multiplies and CUDA Graphs.
On one NVIDIA B300, the README reports an example request (3 questions, 7 candidates, 539 tokens) dropping from 256.0 ms on the default path and 103.7 ms with FLA kernels to 17.3 ms, and mean JevBench latency from 258 ms to 42.0 ms, with accuracy 197/231 against 198/231 for the original server because one near-tie flipped. It requires an Open-Jev installation and weights and is aimed at teams serving Open-Jev at scale.

How it works
- Install Open-Jev and download Open-Jev-27B-v1.1.
- Start open-jev-fast in place of python -m jev.server.
- Send the same requests; shared prompt text is computed once.
- Receive candidate probabilities with lower latency.
Strengths
- About 6x lower JevBench latency per the README.
- Same model and request format; no quantization.
- Shared-prefix computation for multi-question requests.
Caveats
- Needs high-end NVIDIA GPUs (tested on B300).
- Depends on Open-Jev installation and weights.
- Tiny accuracy difference from numeric changes.

Frequently asked questions
Is it a new model?
No, it runs the same Open-Jev-27B-v1.1 model faster.
How much faster is it?
The README reports 42.0 ms mean JevBench latency versus 258 ms with FLA kernels.
Does accuracy change?
197/231 versus 198/231, due to one near-tie prediction flipping.
