-`VLLM_OPENVINO_DEVICE` to specify which device utilize for the inference. If there are multiple GPUs in the system, additional indexes can be used to choose the proper one (e.g, ``VLLM_OPENVINO_DEVICE=GPU.1``). If the value is not specified, CPU device is used by default.

-`VLLM_OPENVINO_KVCACHE_SPACE` to specify the KV Cache size (e.g, `VLLM_OPENVINO_KVCACHE_SPACE=40` means 40 GB space for KV cache), larger setting will allow vLLM running more requests in parallel. This parameter should be set based on the hardware configuration and memory management pattern of users.

GPU device implements the logic for automatic detection of available GPU memory and, by default, tries to reserve as much memory as possible for the KV cache (taking into account ``gpu_memory_utilization`` option). However, this behavior can be overridden by explicitly specifying the desired amount of memory for the KV cache using ``VLLM_OPENVINO_KVCACHE_SPACE`` environment variable (e.g, ``VLLM_OPENVINO_KVCACHE_SPACE=8`` means 8 GB space for KV cache).

Currently, the best performance using GPU can be achieved with the default vLLM execution parameters for models with quantized weights (8 and 4-bit integer data types are supported) and `preemption-mode=swap`.
