arXiv:2510.19366v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) scales model capacity through sparse activation, and is becoming an important architecture for large language models (LLMs). However, existing MoE serving systems typically execute all requests under a fixed routing configuration, limiting their ability to exploit heterogeneous computation requirements across requests. Routing top-$k$, which determines the number of routed experts activated per token, directly controls routed-expert computation and provides a natural mechanism for request-level compute elasticity. Realizing this capability, however, requires finer-grained routing units and efficient runtime execution for heterogeneous routing budgets. We present \textsc{MoE-Prism}, a model and system support framework for request-level compute elasticity in MoE serving. \textsc{MoE-Prism}decomposes monolithic experts into fine-grained sub-experts to expose denser routing operating points and provides a $k$-aware serving runtime that effectively serves heterogeneous routing budgets under both throughput-oriented and latency-sensitive workloads. We implement \textsc{MoE-Prism} on top of vLLM and evaluate it on three representative MoE models. \textsc{MoE-Prism} expands the number of available routing operating points by $4\times$, improves offline inference throughput by up to 33.9\%, and reduces online serving TTFT under heterogeneous workloads. These results demonstrate practical elastic MoE serving with request-level routing targets.
