code-eval VS exllama

You're looking for "HumanEval" tests. Not saying this is the best way to test it, but it's the only standard test I know of that code models are compared with and are commonly benchmarked for

The current best models you'd want to try that I'm aware of is WizardCoder(15B), Starcoder(15B), and replit's code model(3B). Replit's instruct model is interesting because of it's competitive performance while only being a 3B model so it's the easiest/fastest to use.

https://github.com/abacaj/code-eval - This is a large mostly up to date list of benchmarks

https://huggingface.co/WizardLM/WizardCoder-15B-V1.0 - has a chart with a mostly up to date comparison

You will want to look at HumanEval (https://github.com/abacaj/code-eval) and Eval+ (https://github.com/my-other-github-account/llm-humaneval-ben...) results for coding.

While Llama2 is an improvement over LLaMA v1, it's still nowhere near even the best open models (currently, sans test contamination, WizardCoder-15B, a StarCoder fine tune is at top). It's really not a competition atm though, ChatGPT-4 wipes the floor for coding atm.

Since I've been on a AI code-helper kick recently. According to the post, Claude 2 now 71.2%, a significant upgrade from 1.3 (56.0%). It isn't specified whether this is pass@1 or pass@10.

For comparison:

* GPT-4 claims 85.4 on HumanEval, in a recent paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.11366.pdf GPT-4 was tested at 80.1 pass@1 and 91 pass@1 using their Reflexion technique. They also include MBPP and Leetcode Hard benchmark comparisons

* WizardCoder, a StarCoder fine-tune is one of the top open models, scoring a 57.3 pass@1, model card here: https://huggingface.co/WizardLM/WizardCoder-15B-V1.0

* The best open model I know of atm is replit-code-instruct-glaive, a replit-code-3b fine tune, which scores a 63.5% pass@1. An independent developer abacaj has reproduced that announcement as part of code-eval, a repo for getting human-eval results: https://github.com/abacaj/code-eval

Those interested in this area may also want to take a look at this repo https://github.com/my-other-github-account/llm-humaneval-ben... that also ranks with Eval+, the CanAiCode Leaderboard https://huggingface.co/spaces/mike-ravkine/can-ai-code-resul... and airate https://github.com/catid/supercharger/tree/main/airate

Also, as with all LLM evals, to be taken with a grain of salt...

To get an idea of programming performance, my can-ai-code Leaderboard is freshly updated this morning, but also check out the excellent llm-eval and code-eval leaderboards.

In terms of speed, we're talking about 140t/s for 7B models, and 40t/s for 33B models on a 3090/4090 now.[1] (1 token ~= 0.75 word) It's quite zippy. llama.cpp performs close on Nvidia GPUs now (but they don't have a handy chart) and you can get decent performance on 13B models on M1/M2 Macs.

You can take a look at a list of evals here: https://llm-tracker.info/books/evals/page/list-of-evals - for general usage, I think home-rolled evals like llm-jeopardy [2] and local-llm-comparison [3] by hobbyists are more useful than most of the benchmark rankings.

That being said, personally I mostly use GPT-4 for code assistance to that's what I'm most interested in, and the latest code assistants are scoring quite well: https://github.com/abacaj/code-eval - a recent replit-3b fine tune the human-eval results for open models (as a point of reference, GPT-3.5 gets 60.4 on pass@1 and 68.9 on pass@10 [4]) - I've only just started playing around with it since replit model tooling is not as good as llamas (doc here: https://llm-tracker.info/books/howto-guides/page/replit-mode...).

I'm interested in potentially applying reflexion or some of the other techniques that have been tried to even further increase coding abilities. (InterCode in particular has caught my eye https://intercode-benchmark.github.io/)

not using exllama seems like the tremendous waste

> We serve Llama on 2 80-GB A100 GPUs, as that is the minumum required to fit Llama in memory (with 16-bit precision)

Well there is your problem.

LLaMA quantized to 4 bits fits in 40GB. And it gets similar throughput split between dual consumer GPUs, which likely means better throughput on a single 40GB A100 (or a cheaper 48GB Pro GPU)

https://github.com/turboderp/exllama#dual-gpu-results

Also, I'm not sure which model was tested, but Llama 70B chat should have better performance than the base model if the prompting syntax is right. That was only reverse engineered from the Meta demo implementation recently.

For those getting started, the easiest one click installer I've used is Nomic.ai's gpt4all: https://gpt4all.io/

This runs with a simple GUI on Windows/Mac/Linux, leverages a fork of llama.cpp on the backend and supports GPU acceleration, and LLaMA, Falcon, MPT, and GPT-J models. It also has API/CLI bindings.

I just saw a slick new tool https://ollama.ai/ that will let you install a llama2-7b with a single `ollama run llama2` command that has a very simple 1-click installer for Apple Silicon Mac (but need to build from source for anything else atm). It looks like it only supports llamas OOTB but it also seems to use llama.cpp (via Go adapter) on the backend - it seemed to be CPU-only on my MBA, but I didn't poke too much and it's brand new, so we'll see.

For anyone on HN, they should probably be looking at https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp and https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml directly. If you have a high-end Nvidia consumer card (3090/4090) I'd highly recommend looking into https://github.com/turboderp/exllama

For those generally confused, the r/LocalLLaMA wiki is a good place to start: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/wiki/guide/

I've also been porting my own notes into a single location that tracks models, evals, and has guides focused on local models: https://llm-tracker.info/

Deploying the 60B version is a challenge though and you might need to apply 4-bit quantization with something like https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ or https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa . Then you can improve the inference speed by using https://github.com/turboderp/exllama .

If you prefer to use an "instruct" model à la ChatGPT (i.e. that does not need few-shot learning to output good results) you can use something like this: https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Wizard-Vicuna-30B-Uncensored...

Exllama for example uses buffers on each card that reduce the amount of VRAM available for model and context, see here. https://github.com/turboderp/exllama/issues/121

For inference step, this repo can help you to use ExLlama to perform inference on an evaluation dataset for the best throughput.

That's a 16GB GPU, you should be able to fit 13B at 4bit: https://github.com/turboderp/exllama
