So the # honest before/after delta is obtained by `git checkout`-ing just those files # to the PR's parent commit and back. No recompile, nothing else moves. # # Every number the graphic reports is a WITHIN-model, WITHIN-harness ratio # (% of native, and after/before), so the comparison is apples-to-apples even # though absolute tok/s differ across model sizes and harnesses. # # Hardware used for the published figures: 8x NVIDIA H100 80GB. # # Usage # ----- # ./benchmark.sh # run every condition for every model # ./benchmark.sh q3_235b # run only conditions whose tag matches this # Results (JSON + logs) land in ./results/. Re-running skips completed configs. # ============================================================================= set -uo pipefail # --- configure these two paths for your machine ------------------------------ VLLM=${VLLM:-/fsx/harry/vllm} # editable vLLM checkout on PR #47187 VENV=${VENV:-/fsx/harry/.venv/bin} # venv with that vLLM installed # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- PR=5bce653e09 # PR #47187 merge commit PARENT="${PR}^" # its parent = "before" TFDIR=vllm/model_executor/models/transformers/ OUT="$(cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd)/results" PORT=8231 FILTER="${1:-}" # optional tag substring filter mkdir -p "$OUT" # Shared workload for every run: 1024-token prompts, 128-token generations.
