Q6_K scalar and AVX2 works
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q4_K scalar and AVX2 works
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q2_K scalar and AVX2 works. Q2_K is way too slow (it is actually slower
than the scalar implementation)
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q3_K scalar and AVX2 works.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q5_K scalar and AVX2 works, and with that all
k_quants are done on AVX2 and scalar
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q6_K working on CUDA. Cannot make it run quite as gast as
with super-blocks with 256 weigths: 8% slower on 4080,
20% slower on the 1660 (but there we fit 1 less layer on the
GPU because pf the larger model size), so some fraction of
these 20% is due to that,
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q4_K working on CUDA. ~10% slower on GTX-1660,
16% slower on 4080.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q2_K working on CUDA. ~3% slower on GTX-1660,
10% slower on 4080.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q3_K working on CUDA.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q5_K working on CUDA, and with this CUDA is done.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q6_K working on ARM_NEON
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q4_K working on ARM_NEON, but quite a bit slower than 256 weights
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q2_K working on ARM_NEON, but quite a bit slower than 256 weights
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q3_K working on ARM_NEON, but quite a bit slower than 256 weights.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q5_K working on ARM_NEON, but quite a bit slower than 256 weights.
With that, we have full support for ARM_NEON, although
performance is not quite there.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Slightly more efficient Q3_K and Q5_K
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Another small improvement for Q3_K and Q5_K on ARM_NEON
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Yet another speedup for Q5_K on ARM_NEON.
We are now within 10% of the QK_K = 256 version.
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
* We are able to pass preprocessor macros to the Metal
compiler
* Q6_K works and is actually slightly more efficient than
the QK_K = 256 version (25.2 ms vs 25.8 ms)
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q4_K works on Metal and is actually slightly faster
than QK_K = 256 (21.95 ms vs 24.0 ms).
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q2_K works on Metal and is very slightly faster
than QK_K = 256 (23.8 ms vs 24.2 ms).
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q3_K works on Metal and is slightly faster
than QK_K = 256 (26.6 ms vs 28.3 ms).
* k_quants: WIP super-blocks with 64 weights
Q5_K works on Metal and is slightly faster
than QK_K = 256 (23.7 ms vs 26.3 ms).
* k_quants: call them _K, not _k, also on Metal
* k_quants: correctly define QK_K in llama.cpp
* Fixed bug in q4_K quantization added with the 64-block addition
* Simplify via lambda
* k_quants: swicth Q3_K to 4-bit scales when QK_K = 64
Otherwise there isn't much benefit from this
quantization type. There is some very slight loss
in accuracy, but we reduce size by ~7%.
E.g., for OpenLLaMA-3B, Q3_K_S perplexity is
8.6131 with 8-bit scales and 8.6352 with 4-bit,
while file size decreases from 1.53G to 1.44G.
* k_quants: switch Q4_K to 4-bit scales when QK_K = 64
Here the loss in accuracy is greater than for Q3_K,
but the Q4_K points still move further to the left on
the perplexity vs size curve.
* k_quants: forgot to add the Metal changes in last commit
* k_quants: change Q5_K to be type 0 when QK_K = 64
Still needs AVX2 implementation
* k_quants: AVX2 implementation for new 64-weight Q5_K
* k_quants: 10% faster ARM_NEON Q5_K dot product
* k_quants: fixed issue caused by merging with master
