To overcome this, one should use Flash Attention without padding tokens in the sequence for training (e.g., by packing a dataset, i.e., concatenating sequences until reaching the maximum sequence length. An example is provided [here](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/examples/pytorch/language-modeling/run_clm.py#L516).
Below is the expected speedup you can get for a simple forward pass on [tiiuae/falcon-7b](https://hf.co/tiiuae/falcon-7b) with a sequence length of 4096 and various batch sizes without padding tokens:
