vLLM High-Throughput Inference 🚀

Fun-ASR natively integrates the vLLM engine for high-throughput batch inference and production-grade real-time streaming service.

Full guide: docs/vllm_guide.md | API docs: modelscope.github.io/FunASR/vllm.html

Three Modes

Mode	Use Case	Entry
Offline Batch	Large-scale transcription	`AutoModelVLLM`
Streaming SDK	Real-time subtitles	`FunASRNanoStreamingVLLM`
WebSocket Service	Production deployment	`serve_realtime_ws.py`

Offline Batch Inference (3-5x faster)

from funasr.auto.auto_model_vllm import AutoModelVLLM

model = AutoModelVLLM(
    model="FunAudioLLM/Fun-ASR-Nano-2512",
    tensor_parallel_size=2,      # Multi-GPU
    gpu_memory_utilization=0.8,
)

results = model.generate(
    ["audio1.wav", "audio2.wav", "audio3.wav"],
    language="中文",
    hotwords=["张三", "北京"],
)
for r in results:
    print(f"[{r['key']}] {r['text']}")

Real-time WebSocket Service

# Start server (with dynamic VAD + speaker diarization)
python serve_realtime_ws.py --port 10095 --language 中文 --tensor-parallel-size 2

# Browser client
open client_mic.html

# Python client
python client_python.py --server ws://localhost:10095 --mic

WebSocket Protocol:

Client: "START" → Server: {"event":"started"}
Client: [audio bytes] → Server: {"sentences":[...], "partial":"..."}
Client: "STOP" → Server: {"sentences":[...], "is_final":true}

Streaming SDK

from funasr.models.fun_asr_nano.inference_vllm_streaming import FunASRNanoStreamingVLLM

engine = FunASRNanoStreamingVLLM.from_pretrained(
    model="FunAudioLLM/Fun-ASR-Nano-2512", chunk_ms=720
)

for result in engine.streaming_generate("audio.wav", language="中文"):
    print(f"[{result['audio_duration_ms']:.0f}ms] {result['fixed_text']}")

Performance

Method	Time (192min audio)	RTFx	CER
PyTorch native	589s	19.6x	8.94%
vLLM (ours)	29.3s	393.9x	8.91%
yuekaizhang vLLM	42.7s	273.0x	17.07%

20.7x faster than PyTorch with identical accuracy (CER diff < 0.05%)
