+**Notes:**
+- TRTLLM MLA only implements decode operations. For prefill operations (including multimodal inputs), it falls back to FlashInfer MLA backend.
+
 Note: Every kernel backend is compatible with a page size > 1 by specifying an argument such as `--page-size 16`.
 This is because a page size of 16 can be converted to a page size of 1 in the kernel backend.
 The "❌" and "✅" symbols in the table above under "Page Size > 1" indicate whether the kernel actually operates with a page size greater than 1, rather than treating a page size of 16 as a page size of 1.

Note that TRTLLM MLA only optimizes decode operations - prefill operations (including multimodal inputs) will fall back to FlashInfer MLA.

MTP support for the CutlassMLA and TRTLLM MLA backends are still under development.
 - To enable DeepSeek MTP for large batch sizes (>32), there are some parameters should be changed (Reference [this discussion](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang/issues/4543#issuecomment-2737413756)):
   - Adjust `--max-running-requests` to a larger number. The default value is `32` for MTP. For larger batch sizes, you should increase this value beyond the default value.
   - Set `--cuda-graph-bs`. It's a list of batch sizes for cuda graph capture. The default captured batch sizes for speculative decoding is set [here](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang/blob/49420741746c8f3e80e0eb17e7d012bfaf25793a/python/sglang/srt/model_executor/cuda_graph_runner.py#L126). You can include more batch sizes into it.
