AI Hardware Optimizer

This tool helps AI developers optimize workloads by identifying the most efficient hardware configurations and settings for their specific models. It systematically tests combinations of hardware setups (e.g., number of CPU threads, GPU memory allocation, mixed precision) and provides recommendations for optimal configurations. This is particularly useful for developers working with resource-intensive tasks like LLM inference.

What It Does

  • Automated exploration of hardware configurations
  • Supports both CPU and GPU optimization parameters
  • Produces actionable suggestions for optimal performance
  • Outputs a ranked list of hardware configuration recommendations with performance metrics

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/your-repo/ai_hardware_optimizer.git
   cd ai_hardware_optimizer

2. Install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Run the tool using the following command:

python ai_hardware_optimizer.py --model <model_name> --device <device> [--max_memory <max_memory>]

Example

python ai_hardware_optimizer.py --model bert-base-uncased --device cuda --max_memory 8GB

Arguments

  • --model: Name of the model to optimize (e.g., bert-base-uncased).
  • --device: Device to use (cpu or cuda).
  • --max_memory: (Optional) Maximum memory allowed (e.g., 8GB).
