PyTorch Model Benchmarking Tool

This tool provides a comprehensive set of utilities for benchmarking PyTorch models, including performance metrics, memory usage, and model statistics.

Features

• Measure inference latency on both CPU and GPU
• Track GPU memory usage
• Calculate model size and number of parameters
• Compute MACs (Multiply-Accumulate operations)
• Calculate model sparsity
• Generate visualizations of parameter distributions and weight distributions
• Provide formatted output of benchmark results

Installation

You can install the package using pip:

pip install pytorch-bench

Example

import torch 
from torchvision.models import resnet50, ResNet50_Weights
from pytorch_bench import benchmark

# Load model and example input
model = resnet50(weights=ResNet50_Weights.DEFAULT)
example_input = torch.randn(1, 3, 224, 224)

# Run benchmark 
results = benchmark(model, example_input)

You can run example.py to see the output in your terminal and play with the different functions.

Advanced Usage

Tracking gpu memory for a torch model

from pytorch_bench import track_gpu_memory

with track_gpu_memory():
    # Your GPU operations here
    pass

max_memory = track_gpu_memory.max_memory
current_memory = track_gpu_memory.current_memory
print(f"Max GPU memory used: {max_memory:.2f} MB")
print(f"Current GPU memory used: {current_memory:.2f} MB")

Getting info about GPU memory

from pytorch_bench import detailed_memory_info

detailed_memory_info()

Calculating model sparsity

from pytorch_bench import get_model_sparsity, get_layer_sparsity

sparsity = get_model_sparsity(model)
print(f"Model sparsity: {sparsity:.2f}")

get_layer_sparsity(model)

Visualizations

When plot=True is set in the benchmark function, two plots will be generated:

1. num_parameters_distribution.png: Bar chart showing the number of parameters in each layer.
2. weight_distribution.png: Histograms of weight distributions for each layer.

These plots can provide insights into the model's architecture and weight patterns.

Notes

• Ensure you have a CUDA-capable GPU for GPU benchmarking.
• The tool uses CUDA events for precise GPU timing.
• Memory usage is tracked using PyNVML.
• MACs calculation requires the torchprofile package.
