llama2.🔥

why this port?

This repository serves as a port that provides a Mojo-based implementation of llama2.c.

With the release of Mojo, I was inspired to take my Python port of llama2.py and transition it to Mojo. The result? A version that leverages Mojo's SIMD & vectorization primitives, boosting the Python performance by nearly 250x. Impressively, the Mojo version now outperforms the original llama2.c compiled in runfast mode out of the box by 15-20%. This showcases the potential of hardware-level optimizations through Mojo's advanced features. I think this also can help us to see how far can we go with the original llama2.c hardware optimizations.

performance

Since there were some debates was this comparison legit or not I did some research and found that in runfast mode llama2.c includes multiple optimizations like aggressive vectorization, which makes comparison fair with Mojo SIMD vectorization.

Further researches of both solutions in parallelized mode compilation showed that llama2.c is faster by ~20% I'm still investigating in this direction since not all the possible optimizations were applied to the Mojo version so far.

Llama is an animal was walking down the street. She stopped and looked up with a big smile on her face. She had a puppy in her arms. She was so excited to have a new friend.
The puppy ran up to her and said, "Hi! I'm here to be your friend!"
Mandy smiled and said, "Hi! I'm Mandy. Can I play with you?"
The puppy barked and wagged his tail. Mandy was so happy! She gave the puppy a big hug and they played with the puppy all afternoon.
When it was time to go home, Mandy said, "I have to go now. Goodbye!"
The puppy barked and said, "Goodbye Mandy! See you tomorrow!"
Mandy waved goodbye and then she went back home. She was so happy to have a new friend.
