ParallelKernelBench: Frontier LLMs can't write fast multi-GPU kernels (yet)
Quick Answer
ParallelKernelBench evaluates LLMs' ability to generate efficient multi-GPU CUDA kernels across 87 workloads.
Quick Take
ParallelKernelBench evaluates LLMs' ability to generate efficient multi-GPU CUDA kernels across 87 workloads. While the best model manages to solve less than a third of the tasks effectively, some generated kernels outperform existing public implementations, highlighting the potential for improvement in LLM capabilities.
Key Points
- ParallelKernelBench tests LLMs on 87 real-world multi-GPU workloads.
- The best-performing model solves less than one-third of the tasks effectively.
- Some generated kernels outperform all existing public implementations.
- The results indicate significant room for improvement in LLMs for kernel generation.
