- Improves overall performance and efficiency for machine learning workloads on AWS.
Article Excerpt
From source RSS / original summaryIf you’re iterating on deploying (LLMs) on AWS GPU instances, you’ve probably noticed the larger the model to be loaded into GPU High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), the longer the painful wait until the GPUs are ready for inference. As models grow to hundreds of billions of parameters and GPU environments grow ever […]
