What is the issue?

I use a set of tests which run against a model. I run them on only-CPU GitLab shared runner of type saas-linux-2xlarge-amd64 (32 vCPUs, 128 GB memory).

I was evaluating gpt-oss:20b and tests took much longer than llama3.1:70b. See example log: https://gitlab.com/tozd/go/fun/-/jobs/11651913043 There are completions taking 50+ minutes. (Whole CI job has 3 hours timeout.) So it looks like everything gets very slow sometimes.

Same tests on llama3.1:70b finish in 20 minutes total CI job time, without such drastic growing of chat completion times: https://gitlab.com/tozd/go/fun/-/jobs/11652542853

Relevant log output
