An important subtlety that often surprises users is the fact that Slurm can assign multiple segments of the same job to the same block. Using segments is essential for optimizing performance based on the specific locality requirements of the workload: Tensor Parallelism (TP) may require small, tight segments to keep latency-sensitive communication on the high-speed NVLink fabric, while Expert Parallelism (EP) may require larger segment sizes to enforce that all-to-all collective operations will always be performed within a single NVLink domain. Using a large segment value such as --segment=16
