starcoder2-7b-quantized.w8a8

Model Overview

  • Model Architecture: StarCoder2
    • Input: Text
    • Output: Text
  • Model Optimizations:
    • Activation quantization: INT8
    • Weight quantization: INT8
  • Intended Use Cases: Intended for commercial and research use. Similarly to starcoder2-7b, this model is intended for code generation and is not an instruction model. Commands like "Write a function that computes the square root." do not work well.
  • Out-of-scope: Use in any manner that violates applicable laws or regulations (including trade compliance laws).
  • Release Date: 8/1/2024
  • Version: 1.0
  • License(s): bigcode-openrail-m
  • Model Developers: Neural Magic

Quantized version of starcoder2-7b. It achieves a HumanEval pass@1 of 33.9, whereas the unquantized model achieves 34.9 when evaluated under the same conditions.

Model Optimizations

This model was obtained by quantizing the weights of starcoder2-7b to INT8 data type. This optimization reduces the number of bits used to represent weights and activations from 16 to 8, reducing GPU memory requirements (by approximately 50%) and increasing matrix-multiply compute throughput (by approximately 2x). Weight quantization also reduces disk size requirements by approximately 50%.

Only weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks are quantized. Weights are quantized with a symmetric static per-channel scheme, where a fixed linear scaling factor is applied between INT8 and floating point representations for each output channel dimension. Activations are quantized with a symmetric dynamic per-token scheme, computing a linear scaling factor at runtime for each token between INT8 and floating point representations. The GPTQ algorithm is applied for quantization, as implemented in the llm-compressor library. GPTQ used a 1% damping factor and 256 sequences of 8,192 random tokens.

Deployment

Use with vLLM

This model can be deployed efficiently using the vLLM backend, as shown in the example below.

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

model_id = "neuralmagic/starcoder2-7b-quantized.w8a8"
number_gpus = 1

sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.2, top_p=0.95, max_tokens=256)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)

prompts = ["def print_hello_world():"]

llm = LLM(model=model_id, tensor_parallel_size=number_gpus)

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

generated_text = outputs[0].outputs[0].text
print(generated_text)

vLLM aslo supports OpenAI-compatible serving. See the documentation for more details.

Creation

This model was created by using the llm-compressor library as presented in the code snipet below.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from datasets import Dataset
from llmcompressor.transformers import SparseAutoModelForCausalLM, oneshot
from llmcompressor.modifiers.quantization import GPTQModifier
import random

model_id = "bigcode/starcoder2-7b"

num_samples = 256
max_seq_len = 8192

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)

max_token_id = len(tokenizer.get_vocab()) - 1
input_ids = [[random.randint(0, max_token_id) for _ in range(max_seq_len)] for _ in range(num_samples)]
attention_mask = num_samples * [max_seq_len * [1]]
ds = Dataset.from_dict({"input_ids": input_ids, "attention_mask": attention_mask})

recipe = GPTQModifier(
  targets="Linear",
  scheme="W8A8",
  ignore=["lm_head"],
  dampening_frac=0.01,
)

model = SparseAutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  model_id,
  device_map="auto",
  trust_remote_code=True,
)

oneshot(
  model=model,
  dataset=ds,
  recipe=recipe,
  max_seq_length=max_seq_len,
  num_calibration_samples=num_samples,
)
model.save_pretrained("starcoder2-7b-quantized.w8a8")

Evaluation

The model was evaluated on the HumanEval and HumanEval+ benchmarks, using the generation configuration from Big Code Models Leaderboard. We used Neural Magic's fork of evalplus and the vLLM engine, using the following commands:

python codegen/generate.py \
  --model neuralmagic/starcoder2-7b-quantized.w8a8 \
  --bs 16 \
  --temperature 0.2 \
  --n_samples 50 \
  --dataset humaneval \
  -- root "."

python3 evalplus/sanitize.py humaneval/neuralmagic--starcoder2-7b-quantized.w8a8_vllm_temp_0.2

evalplus.evaluate --dataset humaneval --samples humaneval/neuralmagic--starcoder2-7b-quantized.w8a8_vllm_temp_0.2-sanitized
