llama.com can now load weights that use the new file format which was
introduced a few weeks ago. Note that, unlike llama.cpp, we will keep
support for old file formats in our tool so you don't need to convert
your weights when the upstream project makes breaking changes. Please
note that using ggjt v3 does make avx2 inference go 5% faster for me.
- Fix UX issues with llama.com
- Do housekeeping on libm code
- Add more vectorization to GGML
- Get GGJT quantizer programs working well
- Have the quantizer keep the output layer as f16c
- Prefetching improves performance 15% if you use fewer threads
This change makes quantized models (e.g. q4_0) go 10% faster on Macs
however doesn't offer much improvement for Intel PC hardware.
This change syncs llama.cpp 699b1ad7fe6f7b9e41d3cb41e61a8cc3ea5fc6b5
which recently made a breaking change to nearly all its file formats
without any migration. Since that'll break hundreds upon hundreds of
models on websites like HuggingFace llama.com will support both file
formats because llama.com will never ever break the GGJT file format
- Introduce -v and --verbose flags
- Don't print stats / diagnostics unless -v is passed
- Reduce --top_p default from 0.95 to 0.70
- Change --reverse-prompt to no longer imply --interactive
- Permit --reverse-prompt specifying custom EOS if non-interactive
