How would you like to use TensorRT-LLM

It isn’t very obvious whether the previous engine build path where going checkpoint -> trtllm build is still the proper path for utilizing tensorrt LLM, or if the PyTorch backend is the new way to run this container.

Want to make sure I align with the setup that will have long term support for new models and upgrades.
Thanks.
