+BitsAndBytes
+==================
+
+vLLM now supports `BitsAndBytes <https://github.com/TimDettmers/bitsandbytes>`_ for more efficient model inference.
+BitsAndBytes quantizes models to reduce memory usage and enhance performance without significantly sacrificing accuracy.
+Compared to other quantization methods,  BitsAndBytes eliminates the need for calibrating the quantized model with input data.
+
+Below are the steps to utilize BitsAndBytes with vLLM.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    $ pip install bitsandbytes>=0.42.0
+
+vLLM reads the model's config file and supports both in-flight quantization and pre-quantized checkpoint.
+
+You can find bitsandbytes quantized models on https://huggingface.co/models?other=bitsandbytes.
+And usually, these repositories have a config.json file that includes a quantization_config section.
+
+Read quantized checkpoint.
+--------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from vllm import LLM
+    import torch
+    # unsloth/tinyllama-bnb-4bit is a pre-quantized checkpoint.
+    model_id = "unsloth/tinyllama-bnb-4bit"
