亮点/可实施的项目

• vLLM ：开箱即用，集成最新的Page Attention，支持单卡和多卡模式。上手简单，可快速实现高性能推理。
• DeepSpeed-FastGen/DeepSpeed ：微软最新框架，集成了模型的训练、推理全过程。相较于其它优化框架调节难度高、模型代码可能需要重新训练的问题，DeepSpeed可从Pytorch代码中直接引入优化模块，只需少量代码修改即可实现高性能推理。注意：在小规模模型状况下，DeepSpeed分布式的训练和推理方法在资源分配时可能有额外的时间开销。笔者在尝试训练小规模模型（如简单全连接神经网络、ResNet50等）时，发现分配资源的时间在框架运行中是难以忽略的，DeepSpeed反而会有更长的时间开销。
• PowerInfer ：基于llama.cpp的基本数据结构，独创冷热神经元分类技术，有效分离算力需求较高的神经元到显存进行高速推理、冷神经元存储到CPU进行低功耗推理。适用于配置较低的服务器，如非专业用途的个人主机等。但目前近支持ReLU激活函数的部分模型，且不支持中文。注意到Tensor-RT和Megatron-LM也是来自NVIDIA的非常火热的框架。但笔者尝试部署这些框架时，发现其软件需求较为复杂（Tensor-RT）或在一般计算资源下可实施性较低（Megatron-LM）。感兴趣的同学也可以了解下，毕竟是来源于最大AI硬件厂商NVIDIA的，他们的工程师会了解更接近硬件的优化方法吧（^*^）。
