vLLM v0.23.0 · Version scoped

In vLLM v0.23.0, `queued_time` is computed as `req_stats.scheduled_ts` - `req_stats.queued_ts`; the source comment describes the queued interval as from first QUEUED event to first SCHEDULED.

Why this matters

Useful for questions about what the request_queue_time_seconds metric's source interval means and which request timestamps define it.

Claim support

No independent claim-support receipt is recorded. Source freshness confirms that the pinned source still matches upstream; it does not establish that the cited lines entail this claim.

Does not establish

typical or healthy queue-time durations (workload-dependent)
that queued_ts reflects the first QUEUED event when a request emits more than one, despite the source comment's wording
queue interval semantics in vLLM versions other than v0.23.0

Guards

vllm_version = v0.23.0
metric_name = vllm:request_queue_time_seconds
runtime_component = scheduler
