# Llama-3-8B-GPTQ-8-Bit - Original Model creator: [Meta Llama from Meta](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama) - Original model: [meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B) - Built with Meta Llama 3 - Quantized by [David Xue](https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-xue-uva/) from [Astronomer](https://astronomer.io) ## MUST READ: Very Important!! Note About Untrained Special Tokens in Llama 3 Base (Non-instruct) Models & Fine-tuning Llama 3 Base - Special tokens such as the ones used for instruct are undertrained in Llama 3 base models. - Credits: discovered by Daniel Han https://twitter.com/danielhanchen/status/1781395882925343058 - ![image/png](https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/655ad0f8727df37c77a09cb9/1U2rRrx60p1pNeeAZw8Rd.png) - A patch function is under way, fine-tuning this model for instruction following may cause `NaN` graidents unless this problem is addressed. ## Important Note About Serving with vLLM & oobabooga/text-generation-webui - For loading this model onto vLLM, make sure all requests have `"stop_token_ids":[128001, 128009]` to temporarily address the non-stop generation issue. - vLLM does not yet respect `generation_config.json`. - vLLM team is working on a a fix for this https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/4180 - For oobabooga/text-generation-webui - Load the model via AutoGPTQ, with `no_inject_fused_attention` enabled. This is a bug with AutoGPTQ library. - Under `Parameters` -> `Generation` -> `Skip special tokens`: turn this off (deselect) - Under `Parameters` -> `Generation` -> `Custom stopping strings`: add `"<|end_of_text|>","<|eot_id|>"` to the field ## Description This repo contains 4 Bit quantized GPTQ model files for [meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B). This model can be loaded with less than 6 GB of VRAM (huge reduction from the original 16.07GB model) and can be served lightning fast with the cheapest Nvidia GPUs possible (Nvidia T4, Nvidia K80, RTX 4070, etc). The 4 bit GPTQ quant has small quality degradation from the original `bfloat16` model but can be served on much smaller GPUs with maximum improvement in latency and throughput. ## GPTQ Quantization Method - This model is quantized by utilizing the AutoGPTQ library, following best practices noted by [GPTQ paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.17323) - Quantization is calibrated and aligned with random samples from the specified dataset (wikitext for now) for minimum accuracy loss. | Branch | Bits | Group Size | Act Order | Damp % | GPTQ Dataset | Sequence Length | VRAM Size | ExLlama | Description | | ------ | ---- | -- | --------- | ------ | ------------ | ------- | ---- | ------- | ---- | | [main](https://huggingface.co/astronomer-io/Llama-3-8B-GPTQ-4-Bit/tree/main) | 4 | 128 | Yes | 0.1 | [wikitext](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wikitext/viewer/wikitext-2-v1/test) | 8192 | 5.74 GB | Yes | 4-bit, with Act Order and group size 128g. Smallest model possible with small accuracy loss | | More variants to come | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | TBD | May upload additional variants of GPTQ 4 bit models in the future using different parameters such as 128g group size and etc. | ## Serving this GPTQ model using vLLM Tested serving this model via vLLM using an Nvidia T4 (16GB VRAM). Tested with the below command ```bash python -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server --model astronomer-io/Llama-3-8B-GPTQ-4-Bit --max-model-len 8192 --dtype float16 ``` For the non-stop token generation bug, make sure to send requests with `stop_token_ids":[128001, 128009]` to vLLM endpoint ### Contributors - Quantized by [David Xue, Machine Learning Engineer from Astronomer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-xue-uva/)
