This article provides a step by step deployment guide for Gemma 4 to a Google Cloud Run hosted GPU enabled system,. A suite of Python MCP tools is built to simplify management of the vLLM hosted Gemma 4 deployment with Antigravity CLI.
What is this project trying to Do?
This project is a DevOps/SRE assistant that uses a Gemma 4 model hosted on Cloud Run with GPU. It provides tools to provision the Docker container and deploy the model, as well as for observability and performance testing.
This project is similar to a previous project that targeted GPU hosted Gemma4 instances on GCP:

Antigravity CLI
Antigravity CLI is the follow-on successor to Gemini CLI- the terminal driven, agent assisted coding tool.
Full details on installing Antigravity CLI are here:
Getting Started with Antigravity CLI
Testing the Antigravity CLI Environment
Once you have all the tools in place- you can test the startup of Antigravity CLI.
You will need to authenticate with a Google Cloud Project or your Google Account:

Getting Started with Antigravity CLI
Python MCP Documentation
The official GitHub Repo provides samples and documentation for getting started:
Where do I start?
The strategy for starting MCP development for model management is a incremental step by step approach.
First, the basic development environment is setup with the required system variables, and a working Antigravity CLI configuration.
Then, a minimal Python MCP Server is built with stdio transport. This server is validated with Antigravity CLI in the local environment.
This setup validates the connection from Antigravity CLI to the local server via MCP. The MCP client (Antigravity CLI) and the Python MCP server both run in the same local environment.
Setup the Basic Environment
At this point you should have a working Python environment and a working Antigravity CLI installation. The next step is to clone the GitHub samples repository with support scripts:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/xbill9/gemma4-tips
Then run init.sh from the cloned directory.
The script will attempt to determine your shell environment and set the correct variables:
gpu-12B-6000-devops-agent
source init.sh
If your session times out or you need to re-authenticate- you can run the set_env.sh script to reset your environment variables:
gpu-12B-6000-devops-agent
source set_env.sh
Variables like PROJECT_ID need to be setup for use in the various build scripts- so the set_env script can be used to reset the environment if you time-out.
Model Management Tool with MCP Stdio Transport
One of the key features that the standard MCP libraries provide is abstracting various transport methods.
The high level MCP tool implementation is the same no matter what low level transport channel/method that the MCP Client uses to connect to a MCP Server.
The simplest transport that the SDK supports is the stdio (stdio/stdout) transport — which connects a locally running process. Both the MCP client and MCP Server must be running in the same environment.
The connection over stdio will look similar to this:
# Initialize FastMCP server
mcp = FastMCP("Self-Hosted vLLM DevOps Agent")
Running the Python Code
First- switch the directory with the Python version of the MCP sample code:
~/gemma4-tips/gpu-12B-6000-devops-agent
Run the release version on the local system:
make install
Processing ./.
The project can also be linted:
xbill@penguin:~/gemma4-tips/gpu-12B-6000-devops-agent$ make lint
ruff check .
All checks passed!
ruff format --check .
6 files already formatted
mypy .
Success: no issues found in 6 source files
MCP stdio Transport
One of the key features that the MCP protocol provides is abstracting various transport methods.
The high level tool MCP implementation is the same no matter what low level transport channel/method that the MCP Client uses to connect to a MCP Server.
The simplest transport that the SDK supports is the stdio (stdio/stdout) transport — which connects a locally running process. Both the MCP client and MCP Server must be running in the same environment.
In this project Antigravity CLI is used as the MCP client to interact with the Python MCP server code.

### 🚀 12B Blackwell Performance Snapshot
Metric | Low Load (1-8 Users) | Medium Load (64 Users) | Peak Load (256 Users)
---------------------------|---------------------------|---------------------------|---------------------------
Throughput (Req/s) | ~3 - 24 Req/s | ~72.6 Req/s | ~88.3 Req/s 🚀
Avg Latency (s) | 0.2s - 0.4s | 0.6s - 1.0s | 1.6s - 4.5s
Success Rate | 100% | 100% | 100%
──────
### 🔍 Key Result Highlights
#### 1. Throughput: 3.8x Faster than L4
The RTX 6000 Blackwell reached a peak throughput of 88.3 Requests/second (at 256 users, 128 context). For
comparison, the NVIDIA L4 GPU saturates at 23.5 RPS for the same model. This 3.8x improvement allows a single
Blackwell instance to handle nearly 4x the request density of an L4.
#### 2. Context Mastery (Up to 16,384 Tokens)
Thanks to the 96GB GDDR7 VRAM, the 12B model maintains high throughput even as the context window scales:
• 4,096 tokens: Maintained 75.1 Req/s at peak concurrency.
• 8,192 tokens: Maintained 57.4 Req/s at peak concurrency.
• 16,384 tokens: Delivered 31.5 Req/s at peak concurrency with 100% success.
• Note: On the 24GB L4 GPU, 16k context windows typically cause OOM (Out of Memory) errors or 0 RPS.
#### 3. Sub-Second Latency Floor
The Blackwell architecture provides an extremely low latency floor for real-time SRE applications:
• Small Context ( < 512 tokens): Average latency stays under 1 second for up to 128 concurrent users.
• Medium Context (4,096 tokens): Average latency stays under 2 seconds for up to 256 concurrent users.

The Gemma 4 (12B) model shows a clear performance hierarchy across hardware, with the RTX 6000 Blackwell (96GB)
serving as a highly balanced, high-density workhorse compared to the specialized TPU v6e and the standard
NVIDIA L4.
### 📊 12B Hardware Comparison Matrix
Metric | NVIDIA L4 (24GB) | RTX 6000 Blackwell (96GB) | TPU v6e-1 (Trillium)
---------------------------|---------------------------|---------------------------|---------------------------
Peak Throughput | ~23.5 RPS | ~88.3 RPS 🚀 | ~72.8 RPS
Success Rate (16k Ctx) | 0% (OOM) | 100% (up to 512 users) | 100% (up to 2048 users)
Avg Latency (Short Ctx) | 0.2s - 0.5s | 0.2s - 0.4s | 0.2s - 0.4s
Max Context Stability | ~8k tokens | 131k tokens | 4k - 8k tokens*
*Note: In the TPU v6e-1 sweep, performance dropped significantly after 4k context, with 8k and 16k contexts
failing (0% success) due to the specific memory allocation/sharding on a single chip.
──────
### 🔍 Comparative Insights
#### 1. RTX 6000 Blackwell vs. TPU v6e-1 (Trillium)
• Throughput Leadership: Surprisingly, the Blackwell RTX 6000 delivered higher peak throughput (~88 RPS) than
the single-chip TPU v6e-1 (~72 RPS) for the 12B model. This highlights the massive bandwidth of GDDR7 (1.79
TB/s) on Blackwell.
• Context Ceiling: The RTX 6000 (96GB) is far more resilient for long-context tasks. While the TPU v6e-1 began
failing at 8k tokens, the Blackwell GPU handled up to 16k context with 100% success and is capable of scaling
up to 131k context with reduced concurrency.
#### 2. Blackwell vs. NVIDIA L4
• 4x Density Jump: The Blackwell GPU provides a 3.8x throughput increase over the L4. This means a single RTX
6000 instance can replace four L4 instances while maintaining better latency.
• Reliability: The L4 is strictly limited to low-context, low-concurrency tasks. The Blackwell card removes
these constraints, allowing enterprise-grade automation to run on a single card.
──────
### ⚖️ Strategic Recommendation for 12B
• 🏆 The Gold Standard: RTX 6000 Blackwell
• Why: Best-in-class throughput (88 RPS) and the highest stability for long-context (16k-128k) workloads.
It is the most versatile choice for any 12B DevOps deployment.
• 🥈 The Budget Choice: NVIDIA L4
• Why: Ideal for individual developer use or low-traffic SRE sidecars where context length stays below 8k.
• 🥉 Specialized Scaling: TPU v6e-4/8
• Why: While a single v6e-1 chip is comparable to a Blackwell card, moving to a v6e-4 or v6e-8 cluster
would drastically exceed GPU performance for massive batch analysis (as seen in the 31B results).
Summary Result: For the Gemma 4 (12B) model, the RTX 6000 Blackwell is the most performant and stable single-
accelerator option currently available in the fleet.

31B | ~140 tokens/s | ~345 tokens/s | ~8,500 tokens/s (v6e-8) | Enterprise Audit
──────
### 🔍 Architectural Comparisons by Model Tier
#### 1. Small Models (2B & 4B)
• Performance: These models are extremely efficient on all hardware.
• Hardware Preference: RTX 6000 Blackwell is the winner due to its superior GDDR7 bandwidth, delivering roughly
30% better throughput than the L4 for these lightweight tasks.
#### 2. Medium Models (12B - The "SRE Standard")
• The Blackwell Revolution: The jump from L4 to Blackwell for the 12B model is the most dramatic in the fleet
(3.8x throughput increase).
• Context Stability: Blackwell handles 16k context with 100% success at 512 concurrent users, while the L4
saturates early and the TPU v6e-1 begins to degrade past 4k tokens.
#### 3. Large Models (26B & 31B)
• 26B Performance: The RTX 6000 Blackwell is surprisingly optimized for the 26B model, reaching 1,232 tokens/s.
This outperforms the TPU v6e-4 for this specific model size.
• 31B Throughput King: The TPU v6e-8 is the undisputed leader for 31B, delivering 8.5k tokens/s. This is 25x
faster than the Blackwell GPU, proving that TPU sharding scales exponentially better for ultra-large parameter
counts.

RTX 6000 Blackwell (31B) | ~345 t/s | $3.03 | Premium context, niche use
──────
### 🔍 Financial Insights
#### 1. The "Scale-to-Zero" Multiplier
While the TPU v6e-1 has the lowest theoretical CPM ($0.04), it costs $33.12/day even if idle. In contrast, an
NVIDIA L4 on Cloud Run costs $0.00 if idle.
• Threshold: If your SRE agent is active for less than ~2 hours per day, the L4 or Blackwell GPU on Cloud Run
is significantly cheaper than a TPU VM.
#### 2. The High-Context Premium
The RTX 6000 Blackwell is the only card that maintains its throughput efficiency as context grows.
• 16k Context Analysis: While other cards OOM or drop throughput by 90%, Blackwell remains stable. Its CPM for
a 16k context audit is effectively 8x lower than an L4 (which would require multiple retries and smaller
shards).
#### 3. Enterprise Batching Winner
For massive 31B workloads, the TPU v6e-8 is essentially unbeatable. Its CPM of $0.36 is nearly 10x cheaper than
running the same model on a single Blackwell GPU for batch tasks.
### ⚖️ Final Summary
• 🏆 Best Budget SRE (Spiky Load): NVIDIA L4 ($0.08 CPM).
• 🚀 Best High-Performance SRE: RTX 6000 Blackwell ($0.09 CPM + Ultra-low Latency).
• 👑 Best Enterprise Throughput: TPU v6e-8 ($0.36 CPM for 31B).
Summary
The strategy for using MCP for Gemma 4 GPU deployment with Antigravity CLI was validated with a incremental step by step approach.
A minimal stdio transport MCP Server was started from Python source code and validated with Antigravity CLI running as a MCP client in the same local environment. This Python server provided all of the management tools to deploy and troubleshoot Cloud Run Model deployments.
