Performance Optimization Guide

Maximize llama.cpp inference speed and efficiency.

CPU Optimization

Thread tuning

# Set threads (default: physical cores)
./llama-cli -m model.gguf -t 8

# For AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (16 cores, 32 threads)
-t 16  # Best: physical cores

# Avoid hyperthreading (slower for matrix ops)

BLAS acceleration

# OpenBLAS (faster matrix ops)
make LLAMA_OPENBLAS=1

# BLAS gives 2-3× speedup

GPU Offloading

Layer offloading

# Offload 35 layers to GPU (hybrid mode)
./llama-cli -m model.gguf -ngl 35

# Offload all layers
./llama-cli -m model.gguf -ngl 999

# Find optimal value:
# Start with -ngl 999
# If OOM, reduce by 5 until fits

Memory usage

# Check VRAM usage
nvidia-smi dmon

# Reduce context if needed
./llama-cli -m model.gguf -c 2048  # 2K context instead of 4K

Batch Processing

# Increase batch size for throughput
./llama-cli -m model.gguf -b 512  # Default: 512

# Physical batch (GPU)
--ubatch 128  # Process 128 tokens at once

Context Management

# Default context (512 tokens)
-c 512

# Longer context (slower, more memory)
-c 4096

# Very long context (if model supports)
-c 32768
