Inference Benchmark

A model server agnostic inference benchmarking tool that can be used to benchmark LLMs running on different infrastructure like GPUs and TPUs. It can also be run on a GKE cluster as a container.

Run the benchmark

1. Create a python virtualenv.
2. Install all the prerequisite packages.

pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Set your huggingface token as an enviornment variable

export HF_TOKEN=<your-huggingface-token>

1. Download the ShareGPT dataset.

wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/anon8231489123/ShareGPT_Vicuna_unfiltered/resolve/main/ShareGPT_V3_unfiltered_cleaned_split.json

1. For Inifinity-Instruct and billsum datasets run

pip install datasets transformers numpy pandas tqdm matplotlib
python datasets/import_dataset.py --hf_token YOUR_TOKEN

1. Run the benchmarking script directly with a specific request rate.

python3 benchmark_serving.py --save-json-results --host=$IP  --port=$PORT --dataset=$PROMPT_DATASET_FILE --tokenizer=$TOKENIZER --request-rate=$REQUEST_RATE --backend=$BACKEND --num-prompts=$NUM_PROMPTS --max-input-length=$INPUT_LENGTH --max-output-length=$OUTPUT_LENGTH --file-prefix=$FILE_PREFIX

1. Generate a full latency profile which generates latency and throughput data at different request rates.

./latency_throughput_curve.sh

Run on a Kubernetes cluster

1. Create a repository in artifact registry to push the image there and use it on your cluster.

gcloud artifacts repositories create ai-benchmark --location=us-central1 --repository-format=docker

1. [Optional] For Inifinity-Instruct and billsum datasets run

pip install datasets transformers numpy pandas tqdm matplotlib
python datasets/import_dataset.py --hf_token YOUR_TOKEN

1. You can build a container to run the benchmark directly on a Kubernetes cluster using the specified Dockerfile.

docker build -t inference-benchmark .

1. Push the image to that repository.

docker tag inference-benchmark us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/{project-name}/ai-benchmark/inference-benchmark
docker push us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/{project-name}/ai-benchmark/inference-benchmark

1. Update the image name in deploy/deployment.yaml to us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/{project-name}/ai-benchmark/inference-benchmark.
2. Deploy and run the benchmark.

kubectl apply -f deploy/deployment.yaml

1. Get the benchmarking data by looking at the logs of the deployment.

kubectl logs deployment/latency-profile-generator

1. To download the full report, get it from the container by listing the files and copying it. If you specify a GCS bucket, the report will be automatically uploaded there.

kubectl exec <latency-profile-generator-pod-name> -- ls
kubectl cp <latency-profile-generator-pod-name>:benchmark-<timestamp>.json report.json

1. Delete the benchmarking deployment.

kubectl delete -f deploy/deployment.yaml

Configuring the Benchmark

The following are the set of flags the benchmarking script takes in. These are all exposed as environment variables in the deploy/deployment.yaml file that you can configure.

• --backend:
  • Type: str
  • Default: "vllm"
  • Choices: ["vllm", "tgi", "naive_transformers", "tensorrt_llm_triton", "sax", "jetstream"]
  • Description: Specifies the backend model server to benchmark.
• --file-prefix:
  • Type: str
  • Default: "benchmark"
  • Description: Prefix for output files.
• --endpoint:
  • Type: str
  • Default: "generate"
  • Description: The endpoint to send requests to.
• --host:
  • Type: str
  • Default: "localhost"
  • Description: The host address of the server.
• --port:
  • Type: int
  • Default: 7080
  • Description: The port number of the server.
• --dataset:
  • Type: str
  • Description: Path to the dataset. The default dataset used is ShareGPT from HuggingFace.
• --models:
  • Type: str
  • Description: Comma separated list of models to benchmark.
• --traffic-split:
  • Type: parsed traffic split (comma separated list of floats that sum to 1.0)
  • Default: None
  • Description: Comma-separated list of traffic split proportions for the models, e.g. '0.9,0.1'. Sum must equal 1.0.
• --stream-request:
  • Action: store_true
  • Description: Whether to stream the request. Needed for TTFT metric.
• --request-timeout:
  • Type: float
  • Default: 3.0 * 60.0 * 60.0 (3 hours)
  • Description: Individual request timeout.
• --tokenizer:
  • Type: str
  • Required: True
  • Description: Name or path of the tokenizer. You can specify the model ID in HuggingFace for the tokenizer of a model.
• --num-prompts:
  • Type: int
  • Default: 1000
  • Description: Number of prompts to process.
• --max-input-length:
  • Type: int
  • Default: 1024
  • Description: Maximum number of input tokens for filtering the benchmark dataset.
• --max-output-length:
  • Type: int
  • Default: 1024
  • Description: Maximum number of output tokens.
• --request-rate:
  • Type: float
  • Default: float("inf")
  • Description: Number of requests per second. If this is inf, then all the requests are sent at time 0. Otherwise, we use Poisson process to synthesize the request arrival times.
• --save-json-results:
  • Action: store_true
  • Description: Whether to save benchmark results to a json file.
• --output-bucket:
  • Type: str
  • Default: None
  • Description: Specifies the Google Cloud Storage bucket to which JSON-format results will be uploaded. If not provided, no upload will occur.
• --output-bucket-filepath:
  • Type: str
  • Default: None
  • Description: Specifies the destination path within the bucket provided by --output-bucket for uploading the JSON results. This argument requires --output-bucket to be set. If not specified, results will be uploaded to the root of the bucket. If the filepath doesnt exist, it will be created for you.
• --additional-metadata-metrics-to-save:
  • Type: str
  • Description: Additional metadata about the workload. Should be a dictionary in the form of a string.
• --scrape-server-metrics:
  • Action: store_true
  • Description: Whether to scrape server metrics.
• --pm-namespace:
  • Type: str
  • Default: default
  • Description: namespace of the pod monitoring object, ignored if scrape-server-metrics is false
• --pm-job:
  • Type: str
  • Default: vllm-podmonitoring
  • Description: name of the pod monitoring object, ignored if scrape-server-metrics is false.
