## Quickstart 🚀

### Installation 📥

#### Using uv (Recommended)

[uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) is a fast Python package manager that we recommend for installing and managing dependencies:

```bash
# Install uv if you haven't already
pip install uv

# Add optimum-benchmark to your uv project
uv add optimum-benchmark

# Or run optimum-benchmark with uv as a command without installing it 
# (automaticlly installs and runs it in an isolated virtual environment)
uv run optimum-benchmark --config-dir examples/ --config-name cuda_pytorch_bert

# Or run optimum-benchmark with uv script without installing it
# (automaticlly installs and runs it in an isolated virtual environment)
uv run script.py
script.py:
# /// script
# dependencies = [
#   "optimum-benchmark",
# ]
# ///
# [...]

# Or clone the repository and create an environment with optimum-benchmark installed for development
git clone https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-benchmark.git
cd optimum-benchmark
uv sync
```

#### Using pip

You can also install using traditional pip:

```bash
pip install optimum-benchmark
```

or install the latest version from the main branch:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-benchmark.git
```

or if you want to tinker with the code, you can clone the repository and install it in editable mode:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-benchmark.git
cd optimum-benchmark
pip install -e .
```

### Running benchmarks using the Python API 🧪

You can run benchmarks from the Python API as simple python scripts. This is especially cool when used with [`uv` scripts](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/scripts/).
Here's an example of how to run an isolated benchmark using the `pytorch` backend, `torchrun` launcher and `inference` scenario with latency and memory tracking enabled.

```python
# /// script
# dependencies = [
#   "optimum-benchmark",
# ]
# ///

from optimum_benchmark import Benchmark, BenchmarkConfig, TorchrunConfig, InferenceConfig, PyTorchConfig
from optimum_benchmark.logging_utils import setup_logging

setup_logging(level="INFO")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    launcher_config = TorchrunConfig(nproc_per_node=2)
    scenario_config = InferenceConfig(latency=True, memory=True)
    backend_config = PyTorchConfig(model="gpt2", device="cuda", device_ids="0,1", no_weights=True)
    benchmark_config = BenchmarkConfig(
        name="pytorch_gpt2",
        scenario=scenario_config,
        launcher=launcher_config,
        backend=backend_config,
    )
    benchmark_report = Benchmark.launch(benchmark_config)
    # push artifacts to the hub
    benchmark_config.push_to_hub("IlyasMoutawwakil/pytorch_gpt2") # or benchmark_config.save_json("pytorch_gpt2/benchmark_config.json")
    benchmark_report.push_to_hub("IlyasMoutawwakil/pytorch_gpt2") # or benchmark_report.save_json("pytorch_gpt2/benchmark_report.json")

# merge them into a single artifact and push to the hub
    benchmark = Benchmark(config=benchmark_config, report=benchmark_report)
    benchmark.push_to_hub("IlyasMoutawwakil/pytorch_gpt2") # or benchmark.save_json("pytorch_gpt2/benchmark.json")
```

Running the above with `uv` will automatically runs it in an isolated virtual environment with `optimum-benchmark` installed, and it's as simple as:

```bash
uv run script.py
```

You can also see the available parameters of different configuration classes in the [Features](#features-) section below.

### Running benchmarks using the Hydra CLI 🧪

You can also run a benchmark using the command line by specifying the configuration directory and the configuration name. Both arguments are mandatory for [`hydra`](https://hydra.cc/). `--config-dir` is the directory where the configuration files are stored and `--config-name` is the name of the configuration file without its `.yaml` extension.

```bash
optimum-benchmark --config-dir examples/ --config-name cuda_pytorch_bert
```

This will run the benchmark using the configuration in [`examples/cuda_pytorch_bert.yaml`](examples/cuda_pytorch_bert.yaml) and store the results in `runs/cuda_pytorch_bert`.

The resulting files are :

- `benchmark_config.json` which contains the configuration used for the benchmark, including the backend, launcher, scenario and the environment in which the benchmark was run.
- `benchmark_report.json` which contains a full report of the benchmark's results, like latency measurements, memory usage, energy consumption, etc.
- `benchmark_report.txt` which contains a detailed report of the benchmark's results, in the same format they were logged.
- `benchmark_report.md` which contains a detailed report of the benchmark's results, in markdown format.
- `benchmark.json` contains both the report and the configuration in a single file.
- `benchmark.log` contains the logs of the benchmark run.

<details>
<summary>Advanced CLI options</summary>

#### Configuration overrides 🎛️

It's easy to override the default behavior of a benchmark from the command line of an already existing configuration file. For example, to run the same benchmark on a different device, you can use the following command:

```bash
optimum-benchmark --config-dir examples/ --config-name pytorch_bert backend.model=gpt2 backend.device=cuda
```

#### Configuration sweeps 🧹

You can easily run configuration sweeps using the `--multirun` option. By default, configurations will be executed serially but other kinds of executions are supported with hydra's launcher plugins (e.g. `hydra/launcher=joblib`).

```bash
optimum-benchmark --config-dir examples --config-name pytorch_bert -m backend.device=cpu,cuda
```

### Configurations structure 📁

You can create custom and more complex configuration files following these [examples]([examples](https://github.com/IlyasMoutawwakil/optimum-benchmark-examples)). They are heavily commented to help you understand the structure of the configuration files.

## Features 🎨

`optimum-benchmark` allows you to run benchmarks with minimal configuration. A benchmark is defined by three main components:

- The launcher to use (e.g. `process`)
- The scenario to follow (e.g. `training`)
- The backend to run on (e.g. `onnxruntime`)

### Launchers 🚀

- [x] Process launcher (`launcher=process`); Launches the benchmark in an isolated process.
- [x] Torchrun launcher (`launcher=torchrun`); Launches the benchmark in multiples processes using `torch.distributed`.
- [x] Inline launcher (`launcher=inline`), not recommended for benchmarking, only for debugging purposes.

<details>
<summary>General Launcher features 🧰</summary>

- [x] Assert GPU devices (NVIDIA & AMD) isolation (`launcher.device_isolation=true`). This feature makes sure no other processes are running on the targeted GPU devices other than the benchmark. Espepecially useful when running benchmarks on shared resources.

</details>

### Scenarios 🏋

- [x] Training scenario (`scenario=training`) which benchmarks the model using the trainer class with a randomly generated dataset.
- [x] Inference scenario (`scenario=inference`) which benchmakrs the model's inference method (forward/call/generate) with randomly generated inputs.

<details>
<summary>Inference scenario features 🧰</summary>

- [x] Memory tracking (`scenario.memory=true`)
- [x] Energy and efficiency tracking (`scenario.energy=true`)
- [x] Latency and throughput tracking (`scenario.latency=true`)
- [x] Warm up runs before inference (`scenario.warmup_runs=20`)
- [x] Inputs shapes control (e.g. `scenario.input_shapes.sequence_length=128`)
- [x] Forward, Call and Generate kwargs (e.g. for an LLM `scenario.generate_kwargs.max_new_tokens=100`, for a diffusion model `scenario.call_kwargs.num_images_per_prompt=4`)

See [InferenceConfig](optimum_benchmark/scenarios/inference/config.py) for more information.
