[BUG] fp8_lighting_indexer.py very slow with more than 8 heads
Required prerequisites
- [x] I have read the documentation https://tilelang.com.
- [x] I have searched the Issue Tracker that this hasn't already been reported. (comment there if it has.)
What version of TileLang are you using?
0.1.6.post1+cu128.gitd9a0f131

If I increase heads to 16, it never finishes.
Isn't DeepSeek V3.2-Exp supposed to have 64 heads? Why does this kernel only work with 8?

Hi @createthis on Blackwell, currently tilelang needs to explicitly copy data to tmem in order to use utcmma. Otherwise, it will fall back to mma, which can be much slower. On H100 it would run faster.
Automating this process is already in our roadmap.
