Qwen Team Releases FlashQLA: a High-Performance Linear Attention Kernel Library That Achieves Up to 3× Speedup on NVIDIA Hopper GPUs
The race to make massive language fashions sooner and cheaper to run has largely been fought at two ranges: the mannequin structure and the {hardware}. But there may be a third, typically underappreciated frontier — the GPU kernel. A kernel is the low-level computational routine that really executes a mathematical operation on the GPU. Writing…
