Scepsy: Serving Agentic Workflows Using Aggregate LLM Pipelines

Agentic workflows carry out complex tasks by orchestrating multiple large language models (LLMs) and tools. Serving such workflows at a target throughput with low latency is challenging because they can be defined using arbitrary agentic frameworks and exhibit unpredictable execution times: execution may branch, fan-out, or recur in data-dependent ways. Since LLMs in workflows often outnumber available GPUs, their execution also leads to GPU oversubscription. We describe Scepsy, a new agentic serving system that efficiently schedules arbitrary multi-LLM agentic workflows onto a GPU cluster. Scepsy exploits the insight that, while agentic workflows have unpredictable end-to-end latencies, the shares of each LLM's total execution times are comparatively stable across executions. Scepsy decides on GPU allocations based on these aggregate shares: first, it profiles the LLMs under different parallelism degrees. It then uses these statistics to construct an Aggregate LLM Pipeline, which is a lightweight latency/throughput predictor for allocations. To find a GPU allocation that minimizes latency while achieving a target throughput, Scepsy uses the Aggregate LLM Pipeline to explore a search space over fractional GPU shares, tensor parallelism degrees, and replica counts. It uses a hierarchical heuristic to place the best allocation onto the GPU cluster, minimizing fragmentation, while respecting network topology constraints. Our evaluation on realistic agentic workflows shows that Scepsy achieves up to 2.4x higher throughput and 27x lower latency compared to systems that optimize LLMs independently or rely on user-specified allocations.
