"""PP-DocLayoutV3 layout-detection server — ONNX Runtime on an NVIDIA L4. Design notes for the L4 (Ada, 24 GB, 121 TFLOPS fp16, PCIe gen4 x16): * TensorRT EP with fp16 is the fast path; Ada has no fp64 units worth using and the graph is fp32-in/fp32-out, so fp16 kernels are close to free accuracy-wise. CUDA EP is the fallback if TensorRT isn't installed. * Engines are cached on disk — a cold TRT build for this graph takes minutes, and without the cache you pay it on every process start. * Requests are batched dynamically, then padded up to a fixed bucket so TRT only ever sees a handful of input shapes (each new shape triggers a rebuild). * Device buffers are allocated once per bucket and reused via IOBinding, so the steady state does no device allocation. * `out_masks` is 48 MB per image in fp32. At bucket 8 that's ~390 MB moved back over PCIe per batch (~30-40 ms). If you don't need polygons, serve the model exported with --no-masks; the server detects it automatically.
