SGLang's unified interaction runtime and the trade-offs of hosting sessions

On October 28, Computing Life reported on the design trade-offs in SGLang's unified interaction runtime: the engine's basic unit moves from a single request to a persistent session, so that turn-taking, interruption and history truncation rules for realtime voice are handled in one place. The report says native full-duplex leans more on session control inside the engine, while cascaded architectures mainly gain convenience in interfaces and evaluation. The async task capability needed for foreground voice plus background delegation is not finished, and SGLang does not support reconnecting after a dropped connection. Keeping state resident in the engine raises migration costs; checking lock-in risk means looking at private extensions to the session interface and whether state can be exported and rebuilt.
