[D] How to get the fastest PyTorch inference and what is the "best" model serving framework?
For 2), I am aware of a few options. Triton inference server is an obvious one as is the ‘transformer-deploy’ version from LDS. My only reservation here is that they require the model compilation or are architecture specific. I am aware of others like Bento, Ray serving and TorchServe. Ideally I would have something that allows any (PyTorch model) to be used without the extra compilation effort (or at least optionally) and has some convenience things like ease of use, easy to deploy, easy to host multiple models and can perform some dynamic batching. Anyway, I am really interested to hear people's experience here as I know there are now quite a few options! Any help is appreciated! Disclaimer - I have no affiliation or are connected in any way with the libraries or companies listed here. These are just the ones I know of. Thanks in advance.

[P] Up to 12X faster GPU inference on Bert, T5 and other transformers with OpenAI Triton kernels
We work for Lefebvre Sarrut, a leading European legal publisher. Several of our products include transformer models in latency sensitive scenarios (search, content recommendation). So far, ONNX Runtime and TensorRT served us well, and we learned interesting patterns along the way that we shared with the community through an open-source library called transformer-deploy. However, recent changes in our environment made our needs evolve:

[P] 4.5 times faster Hugging Face transformer inference by modifying some Python AST
Regarding CPU inference, quantization is very easy, and supported by Transformer-deploy , however performance on transformer are very low outside corner cases (like no batch, very short sequence and distilled model), and last Intel generation CPU based instance like C6 or M6 on AWS are quite expensive compared to a cheap GPU like Nvidia T4, to say it otherwise, on transformer, until you are ok with slow inference and takes a small instance (for a PoC for instance), CPU inference is probably not a good idea.
