Comparing tokens/second with llama-cpp on mac m1
I was trying to compare TorchChat's generate tokens/second with llama-cpp's generate on my mac.
I am using GGML FP16 with llama-cpp and I believe the default in TorchChat is FP16?
TorchChat : 1.85 tokens/sec llama-cpp: 11.27 tokens/sec
Please correct me if I am not doing an apples-apples comparison!

write me a story about a boy and his bear
Once upon a time, in a dense forest, there lived a boy named Max. Max was a curious and adventurous boy who loved exploring the woods and discovering new things. One day, while wandering through the forest, Max stumbled upon

@agunapal can you post your time to first token result as well?
- IIRC, llama.cpp is hiding metal initialization cost behind that startup wall of text.
- The PyTorch eager MPS backend has a significant overhead on the first run, which you can see by passing

Hi @swolchok You are right. I suggest showing --num_samples > 1 in the README. Otherwise the first experience for a user would be that torchchat is "slow"
Also, now I see time to first token value as 0.20. Is this accurate?

The way that I measure time to first token is by starting and ending the timer around prefill() function in generate.py. This should be accurate.
Hi @larryliu0820 It doesn't seem like llama-cpp is showing this by default. Will have to add the logic to check this. Will update when I can try this out
$ python torchchat.py generate llama3 --prompt "write me a story about a boy and his bear" --seed 42 --max-new-tokens 50 --num-samples 3
For some reason llama2 does not have the same problem, see

It is but we will be landing some changes that will push it past llama.cpp very shortly.
