Hi,

We are very pleased to announce the 0.10.0 version of TensorRT-LLM. It has been an intense effort, and we hope that it will enable you to easily deploy GPU-based inference for state-of-the-art LLMs. We want TensorRT-LLM to help you run those LLMs very fast.

This update includes:

Key Features and Enhancements

  • The Python high level API
    • Added embedding parallel, embedding sharing, and fused MLP support.
    • Enabled the usage of the executor API.
  • Added a weight-stripping feature with a new trtllm-refit command. For more information, refer to examples/sample_weight_stripping/README.md.
  • Added a weight-streaming feature. For more information, refer to docs/source/advanced/weight-streaming.md.
  • Enhanced the multiple profiles feature; --multiple_profiles argument in trtllm-build command builds more optimization profiles now for better performance.
  • Added FP8 quantization support for Mixtral.
  • Added support for pipeline parallelism for GPT.
  • Optimized applyBiasRopeUpdateKVCache kernel by avoiding re-computation.
  • Reduced overheads between enqueue calls of TensorRT engines.
  • Added support for paged KV cache for enc-dec models. The support is limited to beam width 1.
  • Added W4A(fp)8 CUTLASS kernels for the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture.
  • Added debug options (--visualize_network and --dry_run) to the trtllm-build command to visualize the TensorRT network before engine build.
  • Integrated the new NVIDIA Hopper XQA kernels for LLaMA 2 70B model.
  • Improved the performance of pipeline parallelism when enabling in-flight batching.
  • Supported quantization for Nemotron models.
  • Added LoRA support for Mixtral and Qwen.
  • Added in-flight batching support for ChatGLM models.
  • Added support to ModelRunnerCpp so that it runs with the executor API for IFB-compatible models.
  • Enhanced the custom AllReduce by adding a heuristic; fall back to use native NCCL kernel when hardware requirements are not satisfied to get the best performance.
  • Optimized the performance of checkpoint conversion process for LLaMA.
  • Benchmark
    • [BREAKING CHANGE] Moved the request rate generation arguments and logic from prepare dataset script to gptManagerBenchmark.
    • Enabled streaming and support Time To the First Token (TTFT) latency and Inter-Token Latency (ITL) metrics for gptManagerBenchmark.
    • Added the --max_attention_window option to gptManagerBenchmark.

API Changes

  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Set the default tokens_per_block argument of the trtllm-build command to 64 for better performance.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Migrated enc-dec models to the unified workflow.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Renamed GptModelConfig to ModelConfig.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Added speculative decoding mode to the builder API.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Refactor scheduling configurations
    • Unified the SchedulerPolicy with the same name in batch_scheduler and executor, and renamed it to CapacitySchedulerPolicy.
    • Expanded the existing configuration scheduling strategy from SchedulerPolicy to SchedulerConfig to enhance extensibility. The latter also introduces a chunk-based configuration called ContextChunkingPolicy.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] The input prompt was removed from the generation output in the generate() and generate_async() APIs. For example, when given a prompt as A B, the original generation result could be <s>A B C D E where only C D E is the actual output, and now the result is C D E.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Switched default add_special_token in the TensorRT-LLM backend to True.
  • Deprecated GptSession and TrtGptModelV1.

  • Base Docker image for TensorRT-LLM backend is updated to nvcr.io/nvidia/tritonserver:24.03-py3.
  • The dependent TensorRT version is updated to 10.0.1.
  • The dependent CUDA version is updated to 12.4.0.
  • The dependent PyTorch version is updated to 2.2.2.

Currently, there are two key branches in the project:
