Shimming Your Way Off a Dead Elixir Dependency

Running Obscura on an NVIDIA GPU with Elixir, EXLA, and Lightning AI

Loading EXLA is not proof that an Elixir workload used an NVIDIA GPU.

I documented how I validated Obscura, Nx, and EXLA on a Linux Tesla T4 through Lightning AI, including an NVSHMEM ABI mismatch, CUDA backend proof, warm inference latency, and the BEAM process’s GPU memory allocation.
