Grouped GEMM

A lighweight library exposing grouped GEMM kernels in PyTorch.

Installation

Run pip install grouped-gemm-db to install the package.

Compiling from source

By default, the installed package runs in conservative (cuBLAS) mode: it launches one GEMM kernel per batch element instead of using a single grouped GEMM kernel for the whole batch.

To enable using grouped GEMM kernels, you need to switch to the CUTLASS mode by setting the GROUPED_GEMM_CUTLASS environment variable to 1 when building the library. For example, to build the library in CUTLASS mode for Ampere (SM 8.0), clone the repository and run the following:

$ TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST=8.0 GROUPED_GEMM_CUTLASS=1 pip install .

See this comment for some performance measurements on A100 and H100.

Upcoming features

• Hopper-optimized grouped GEMM kernels.
