BatchedLLM

like itertools.batched but for calling LLM

What? Why? How?

This is a wrapper for any async client to limit amount of concurent requests. More features are planned, like caching and budget restrictions.

Sometimes you work with large dataset and model with mixed reasoning where one requst responds immidiately while another waits for what feels like eternity. This tool helps you minimize time waiting while adding some usefull features, like error handling (more features are planned).

The principle behind is overwriting python attribute getters (getattrs) and call functions (call) and storing them till later evaluation. This also means that clients can change, but the tool doesn't need to. The intended use is for LLM clients to limit concurency, but, theoretically, and async object can be wrapped to limit its concurency and manage errors.
