本指南提供了使用 PyTorch benchmark 模块来测量和比较代码性能的快速入门指南。
简介#
基准测试是编写代码的重要一步。它有助于我们验证代码是否符合性能预期,比较解决同一问题的不同方法,并防止性能退化。
在对 PyTorch 代码进行基准测试时,有很多选择,包括 Python 内置的 timeit 模块。然而,对 PyTorch 代码进行基准测试时存在许多容易被忽略的陷阱,例如线程数管理和 CUDA 设备同步。此外,为基准测试生成 Tensor 输入可能非常繁琐。
本指南演示了如何使用 PyTorch benchmark 模块来避免常见错误,同时更轻松地比较不同代码的性能、生成基准测试输入等。
设置#
在开始之前,请确保已安装 torch。
pip install torch
步骤#
定义待基准测试的函数
使用
timeit.Timer进行基准测试使用
torch.utils.benchmark.Timer进行基准测试使用
Blocked Autorange进行基准测试比较基准测试结果
保存/加载基准测试结果
使用
Fuzzed Parameters生成输入使用
Callgrind收集指令计数
1. 定义待基准测试的函数#
在撰写本文时,torch.dot 不支持批处理模式,因此我们将比较两种使用现有 torch 算子实现它的方法:一种方法结合使用了 mul 和 sum,另一种将问题归约为 bmm。
import torch
def batched_dot_mul_sum(a, b):
'''Computes batched dot by multiplying and summing'''
return a.mul(b).sum(-1)
def batched_dot_bmm(a, b):
'''Computes batched dot by reducing to ``bmm``'''
a = a.reshape(-1, 1, a.shape[-1])
b = b.reshape(-1, b.shape[-1], 1)
return torch.bmm(a, b).flatten(-3)
# Input for benchmarking
x = torch.randn(10000, 64)
# Ensure that both functions compute the same output
assert batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x).allclose(batched_dot_bmm(x, x))
2. 使用 timeit.Timer 进行基准测试#
首先,让我们使用 Python 内置的 timeit 模块对代码进行基准测试。这里我们保持基准测试代码简洁,以便比较 timeit 和 torch.utils.benchmark 的默认行为。
import timeit
t0 = timeit.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals={'x': x})
t1 = timeit.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals={'x': x})
print(f'mul_sum(x, x): {t0.timeit(100) / 100 * 1e6:>5.1f} us')
print(f'bmm(x, x): {t1.timeit(100) / 100 * 1e6:>5.1f} us')
mul_sum(x, x): 111.6 us
bmm(x, x): 70.0 us
3. 使用 torch.utils.benchmark.Timer 进行基准测试#
PyTorch benchmark 模块的设计初衷是让那些使用过 timeit 模块的人感到熟悉。然而,它的默认设置使得对 PyTorch 代码进行基准测试变得更加简单和安全。让我们首先比较与上述相同的基本 API。
import torch.utils.benchmark as benchmark
t0 = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals={'x': x})
t1 = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals={'x': x})
print(t0.timeit(100))
print(t1.timeit(100))
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb10400d0f0>
batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum
379.29 us
1 measurement, 100 runs , 1 thread
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb103d67048>
batched_dot_bmm(x, x)
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm
716.42 us
1 measurement, 100 runs , 1 thread
尽管基本功能的 API 相同,但仍有一些重要区别。benchmark.Timer.timeit() 返回的是单次运行的时间,而 timeit.Timer.timeit() 返回的是总运行时间。PyTorch benchmark 模块还提供了用于打印结果的格式化字符串表示。
另一个重要的区别,以及结果产生差异的原因是,PyTorch 基准测试模块默认在单线程中运行。我们可以通过 num_threads 参数更改线程数。
torch.utils.benchmark.Timer 接受几个额外的参数,包括:label、sub_label、description 和 env,它们会改变返回测量对象的 __repr__,并用于对结果进行分组(稍后详细介绍)。
num_threads = torch.get_num_threads()
print(f'Benchmarking on {num_threads} threads')
t0 = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals={'x': x},
num_threads=num_threads,
label='Multithreaded batch dot',
sub_label='Implemented using mul and sum')
t1 = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals={'x': x},
num_threads=num_threads,
label='Multithreaded batch dot',
sub_label='Implemented using bmm')
print(t0.timeit(100))
print(t1.timeit(100))
Benchmarking on 40 threads
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb103d54080>
Multithreaded batch dot: Implemented using mul and sum
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum
118.47 us
1 measurement, 100 runs , 40 threads
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb16935d2e8>
Multithreaded batch dot: Implemented using bmm
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm
68.21 us
1 measurement, 100 runs , 40 threads
使用所有可用线程运行 benchmark 可以得到与 timeit 模块相似的结果。更重要的是,哪个版本更快取决于我们运行代码所使用的线程数。这就是为什么用符合实际使用场景的线程设置来测试代码非常重要。另一个需要记住的重要点是,在 GPU 上进行基准测试时,要同步 CPU 和 CUDA。让我们再次在 CUDA 张量上运行上述基准测试,看看会发生什么。
x = torch.randn(10000, 1024, device='cuda')
t0 = timeit.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals={'x': x})
t1 = timeit.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals={'x': x})
# Ran each twice to show difference before/after warm-up
print(f'mul_sum(x, x): {t0.timeit(100) / 100 * 1e6:>5.1f} us')
print(f'mul_sum(x, x): {t0.timeit(100) / 100 * 1e6:>5.1f} us')
print(f'bmm(x, x): {t1.timeit(100) / 100 * 1e6:>5.1f} us')
print(f'bmm(x, x): {t1.timeit(100) / 100 * 1e6:>5.1f} us')
mul_sum(x, x): 27.6 us
mul_sum(x, x): 25.3 us
bmm(x, x): 2775.5 us
bmm(x, x): 22.4 us
t0 = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals={'x': x})
t1 = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals={'x': x})
# Run only once since benchmark module does warm-up for us
print(t0.timeit(100))
print(t1.timeit(100))
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb10400d080>
batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum
232.93 us
1 measurement, 100 runs , 1 thread
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb10400d0f0>
batched_dot_bmm(x, x)
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm
181.04 us
1 measurement, 100 runs , 1 thread
结果揭示了一个有趣的现象。使用 timeit 模块运行 bmm 版本的第一次运行时间比第二次长得多。这是因为 bmm 调用了 cuBLAS,而 cuBLAS 在第一次被调用时需要加载,这会花费一些时间。这就是为什么在进行基准测试前进行预热运行很重要,幸运的是,PyTorch 的 benchmark 模块会自动处理这些。
timeit 和 benchmark 模块之间的结果差异是因为 timeit 模块没有同步 CUDA,因此仅计算了内核启动的时间。而 PyTorch 的 benchmark 模块会为我们进行同步。
4. 使用 Blocked Autorange 进行基准测试#
虽然 timeit.Timer.autorange 进行单次至少 0.2 秒的连续测量,但 torch.utils.benchmark.Timer.blocked_autorange 会进行多次测量,总时间至少为 0.2 秒(可通过 min_run_time 参数更改),并受到计时开销是总测量时间的一小部分的约束。这是通过首先以不断增加的每次循环运行次数来运行,直到运行时间远大于测量开销(这也起到预热作用),然后进行测量直到达到目标时间来完成的。这具有很好的特性,即浪费的数据更少,并且允许我们计算统计数据来评估测量结果的可靠性。
m0 = t0.blocked_autorange()
m1 = t1.blocked_autorange()
print(m0)
print(m1)
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb10400d0f0>
batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum
231.79 us
1 measurement, 1000 runs , 1 thread
<torch.utils.benchmark.utils.common.Measurement object at 0x7fb10400d080>
batched_dot_bmm(x, x)
setup: from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm
Median: 162.08 us
2 measurements, 1000 runs per measurement, 1 thread
我们还可以从返回的测量对象中查看单独的统计信息。
print(f"Mean: {m0.mean * 1e6:6.2f} us")
print(f"Median: {m0.median * 1e6:6.2f} us")
Mean: 231.79 us
Median: 231.79 us
5. 比较基准测试结果#
到目前为止,我们一直在针对单个输入比较两个版本的批处理点积。在实践中,我们还需要尝试输入组合以及不同的线程数。Compare 类有助于在格式化的表格中显示多次测量的结果。它使用上述定义的注释(label、sub_label、num_threads 等)以及 description 来对表格进行分组和组织。让我们使用 Compare 来查看我们的函数在不同输入大小和线程数下的表现。
from itertools import product
# Compare takes a list of measurements which we'll save in results.
results = []
sizes = [1, 64, 1024, 10000]
for b, n in product(sizes, sizes):
# label and sub_label are the rows
# description is the column
label = 'Batched dot'
sub_label = f'[{b}, {n}]'
x = torch.ones((b, n))
for num_threads in [1, 4, 16, 32]:
results.append(benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals={'x': x},
num_threads=num_threads,
label=label,
sub_label=sub_label,
description='mul/sum',
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1))
results.append(benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals={'x': x},
num_threads=num_threads,
label=label,
sub_label=sub_label,
description='bmm',
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1))
compare = benchmark.Compare(results)
compare.print()

上述结果表明,对于运行在多个线程上的大型张量,归约为 bmm 的版本效果更好,而对于较小和/或单线程代码,另一个版本更好。
Compare 还提供了用于更改表格格式的函数。
compare.trim_significant_figures()
compare.colorize()
compare.print()
6. 保存/加载基准测试结果#
Measurements(以及第 8 节中描述的 CallgrindStats)可以通过 pickle 模块进行序列化。这使得 A/B 测试变得简单,因为您可以从两个独立的环境收集测量结果,将它们 pickle,然后在单一环境中加载两者。Timer 甚至接受一个 env 构造函数参数,以便这种 A/B 测试能够无缝进行。
想象一下,add/sum 和 bmm 方法不是两个 Python 函数,而是存在于 PyTorch 的两个不同构建版本中。下面的示例演示了如何对它们进行 A/B 测试。为了简单起见,我们仅使用形状的子集,并通过 pickle 往返结果,而不是实际使用多个环境并将结果写入磁盘。
import pickle
ab_test_results = []
for env in ('environment A: mul/sum', 'environment B: bmm'):
for b, n in ((1, 1), (1024, 10000), (10000, 1)):
x = torch.ones((b, n))
dot_fn = (batched_dot_mul_sum if env == 'environment A: mul/sum' else batched_dot_bmm)
m = benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot(x, x)',
globals={'x': x, 'batched_dot': dot_fn},
num_threads=1,
label='Batched dot',
description=f'[{b}, {n}]',
env=env,
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1)
ab_test_results.append(pickle.dumps(m))
ab_results = [pickle.loads(i) for i in ab_test_results]
compare = benchmark.Compare(ab_results)
compare.trim_significant_figures()
compare.colorize()
compare.print()
[------------------------------------- Batched dot -------------------------------------]
| [1, 1] | [1024, 10000] | [10000, 1]
1 threads: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(environment A: mul/sum) batched_dot(x, x) | 7 | 36000 | 21
(environment B: bmm) batched_dot(x, x) | 14 | 40000 | 85
Times are in microseconds (us).
# And just to show that we can round trip all of the results from earlier:
round_tripped_results = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(results))
assert(str(benchmark.Compare(results)) == str(benchmark.Compare(round_tripped_results)))
7. 使用 Fuzzed Parameters 生成输入#
正如我们在上一节中看到的,根据输入张量的不同,可能会存在显著的性能差异。因此,对多种输入运行基准测试是一个好主意。但是,创建所有这些输入张量可能很繁琐,这时 torch.utils.benchmark.Fuzzer 及相关类就派上用场了。让我们看看如何使用 Fuzzer 为基准测试创建一些测试用例。
from torch.utils.benchmark import Fuzzer, FuzzedParameter, FuzzedTensor, ParameterAlias
# Generates random tensors with 128 to 10000000 elements and sizes k0 and k1 chosen from a
# ``loguniform`` distribution in [1, 10000], 40% of which will be discontiguous on average.
example_fuzzer = Fuzzer(
parameters = [
FuzzedParameter('k0', minval=1, maxval=10000, distribution='loguniform'),
FuzzedParameter('k1', minval=1, maxval=10000, distribution='loguniform'),
],
tensors = [
FuzzedTensor('x', size=('k0', 'k1'), min_elements=128, max_elements=10000000, probability_contiguous=0.6)
],
seed=0,
)
results = []
for tensors, tensor_params, params in example_fuzzer.take(10):
# description is the column label
sub_label=f"{params['k0']:<6} x {params['k1']:<4} {'' if tensor_params['x']['is_contiguous'] else '(discontiguous)'}"
results.append(benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals=tensors,
label='Batched dot',
sub_label=sub_label,
description='mul/sum',
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1))
results.append(benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',
globals=tensors,
label='Batched dot',
sub_label=sub_label,
description='bmm',
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1))
compare = benchmark.Compare(results)
compare.trim_significant_figures()
compare.print()
[--------------------- Batched dot ---------------------]
| mul/sum | bmm

725 x 257 | 87 | 180
49 x 383 | 15 | 30
34 x 1468 | 30 | 118
187 x 5039 | 400 | 1200
2140 x 1296 (discontiguous) | 2000 | 41000

78 x 5 (discontiguous) | 9 | 20
187 x 1 | 12 | 10
Times are in microseconds (us).
定义您自己的 fuzzers 具有很大的灵活性,这对于创建强大的基准测试输入集非常有用。但为了使事情更简单,PyTorch 基准测试模块附带了一些针对常见基准测试需求的内置 fuzzers。让我们看看如何使用其中一个内置的 fuzzers。
from torch.utils.benchmark.op_fuzzers import binary
results = []
for tensors, tensor_params, params in binary.BinaryOpFuzzer(seed=0).take(10):
sub_label=f"{params['k0']:<6} x {params['k1']:<4} {'' if tensor_params['x']['is_contiguous'] else '(discontiguous)'}"
results.append(benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_mul_sum(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_mul_sum',
globals=tensors,
label='Batched dot',
sub_label=sub_label,
description='mul/sum',
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1))
results.append(benchmark.Timer(
stmt='batched_dot_bmm(x, x)',
setup='from __main__ import batched_dot_bmm',

label='Batched dot',
sub_label=sub_label,
description='bmm',
).blocked_autorange(min_run_time=1))
compare = benchmark.Compare(results)
compare.trim_significant_figures()
compare.colorize(rowwise=True)
compare.print()

8. 使用 Callgrind 收集指令计数#
优化代码的挑战之一是挂钟时间(wall time)的变异性和不透明性。存在许多非确定性来源,从自适应时钟速度到与其他进程的资源争用。此外,端到端时间无法深入了解时间花费在哪里,而这正是我们在优化代码时真正感兴趣的内容。
一种补充方法是同时收集指令计数。这些计数是一种代理指标,不能捕获性能的所有方面(例如内存或 I/O 密集型任务),但它们确实具有一些有用的特性。指令计数是可重复的,对环境变化不敏感,并能提供程序在何处消耗周期的细粒度洞察。
为了了解指令计数的用途,让我们看看如何减少 batched_dot_mul_sum 的开销。显而易见的解决方案是将其移至 C++,从而避免在 Python 和 C++ 之间多次切换。
幸运的是,源代码几乎相同。我们在 C++ 中要问的一个问题是应该按值传递参数还是按引用传递参数。
