# BitsAndBytes
|
||||
|
||||
vLLM now supports [BitsAndBytes](https://github.com/TimDettmers/bitsandbytes) for more efficient model inference.
|
||||
BitsAndBytes quantizes models to reduce memory usage and enhance performance without significantly sacrificing accuracy.
|
||||
Compared to other quantization methods, BitsAndBytes eliminates the need for calibrating the quantized model with input data.
|
||||
|
||||
Below are the steps to utilize BitsAndBytes with vLLM.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ pip install bitsandbytes>=0.45.0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
vLLM reads the model's config file and supports both in-flight quantization and pre-quantized checkpoint.
|
||||
|
||||
You can find bitsandbytes quantized models on <https://huggingface.co/models?other=bitsandbytes>.
|
||||
And usually, these repositories have a config.json file that includes a quantization_config section.
|
||||
|
||||
## Read quantized checkpoint.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from vllm import LLM
|
||||
import torch
|
||||
# unsloth/tinyllama-bnb-4bit is a pre-quantized checkpoint.
|
||||
model_id = "unsloth/tinyllama-bnb-4bit"
|
||||
llm = LLM(model=model_id, dtype=torch.bfloat16, trust_remote_code=True, \
|
||||
quantization="bitsandbytes", load_format="bitsandbytes")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Inflight quantization: load as 4bit quantization
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from vllm import LLM
|
||||
import torch
|
||||
model_id = "huggyllama/llama-7b"
|
||||
llm = LLM(model=model_id, dtype=torch.bfloat16, trust_remote_code=True, \
|
||||
quantization="bitsandbytes", load_format="bitsandbytes")
|
||||
```
|
||||
## OpenAI Compatible Server
|
||||
|
||||
Append the following to your 4bit model arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
--quantization bitsandbytes --load-format bitsandbytes
|
||||
```
