GPT完全指南(七):推理优化与部署
深入解析GPT模型的推理优化技术,包括KV Cache、量化、Flash Attention、Speculative Decoding以及vLLM、TensorRT-LLM等推理框架
训练好的GPT模型要投入实际应用,推理效率至关重要。本文深入探讨GPT推理的各种优化技术,从底层的KV Cache到高级的Speculative Decoding,以及如何使用vLLM、TensorRT-LLM等框架进行高效部署。
推理性能瓶颈分析
为什么GPT推理慢?
GPT推理的主要瓶颈:
- 内存带宽受限:模型参数需要从HBM加载到计算单元
- 自回归生成:每次只能生成一个token
- 注意力计算:复杂度随序列长度平方增长
- 批处理困难:不同请求的序列长度不同

model_params: float, # 参数量(十亿)
batch_size: int,

memory_bandwidth: float, # GB/s
flops: float # TFLOPS

2. Decode: 生成输出(内存密集)

# Prefill阶段:计算密集
prefill_flops = 2 * model_params * 1e9 * batch_size * seq_length
prefill_time = prefill_flops / (flops * 1e12) # seconds
# Decode阶段:内存密集,每个token都要加载全部参数
decode_time_per_token = param_bytes / (memory_bandwidth * 1e9)

KV Cache
原理
在自回归生成中,每个新token都需要attend到之前所有token。如果不缓存,同样的K和V会被重复计算。
