+Most configuration is done by way of key/value arguments. Arguments are meant
+to be derived from flags or config files and are expected to be simple strings
+or integer values:
+
+  * "system_type": A supported system type, corresponding to a subclass of
+    SystemBuilder. Typically available values include "hostcpu", "amdgpu", etc.
+  * Other keywords are passed to the concrete SystemBuilder subclass.
+
+Resolution for the `system_type` is special and is checked in three steps, with
+the first defined winning:
+
+1. `kwargs["system_type"]`
+2. Environment `SHORTFIN_SYSTEM_TYPE` variable (or as controlled by `env_prefix`)
+3. `SystemBuilder.default_system_type` as a process-wide default.
+
+Args:
+  env_prefix: Controls how options are looked up in the environment. By default,
+    the prefix is "SHORTFIN_" and upper-cased options are appended to it. Any
+    option not explicitly specified but in the environment will be used. Pass
+    None to disable environment lookup.
