+# Accelerate inference of text-to-image diffusion models
+
+Diffusion models are known to be slower than their counter parts, GANs, because of the iterative and sequential reverse diffusion process. Recent works try to address limitation with:
+
+* progressive timestep distillation (such as [LCM LoRA](../using-diffusers/inference_with_lcm_lora.md))
+* model compression (such as [SSD-1B](https://huggingface.co/segmind/SSD-1B))
+* reusing adjacent features of the denoiser (such as [DeepCache](https://github.com/horseee/DeepCache))
+
+In this tutorial, we focus on leveraging the power of PyTorch 2 to accelerate the inference latency of text-to-image diffusion pipeline, instead. We will use [Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL)](../using-diffusers/sdxl.md) as a case study, but the techniques we will discuss should extend to other text-to-image diffusion pipelines.
+
+## Setup
+
+Make sure you're on the latest version of `diffusers`: 
+
+```bash
+pip install -U diffusers
+```
+
+Then upgrade the other required libraries too:
+
+```bash
+pip install -U transformers accelerate peft
+```
+
+To benefit from the fastest kernels, use PyTorch nightly. You can find the installation instructions [here](https://pytorch.org/). 
+
+To report the numbers shown below, we used an 80GB 400W A100 with its clock rate set to the maximum.
+
+_This tutorial doesn't present the benchmarking code and focuses on how to perform the optimizations, instead. For the full benchmarking code, refer to: [https://github.com/huggingface/diffusion-fast](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusion-fast)._
+
+## Baseline
+
+Let's start with a baseline. Disable the use of a reduced precision and [`scaled_dot_product_attention`](../optimization/torch2.0.md):
+
+```python
+from diffusers import StableDiffusionXLPipeline
+
+# Load the pipeline in full-precision and place its model components on CUDA.
+pipe = StableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
+    "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0"
+).to("cuda")
+
+# Run the attention ops without efficiency.
+pipe.unet.set_default_attn_processor()
+pipe.vae.set_default_attn_processor()
+
+prompt = "Astronaut in a jungle, cold color palette, muted colors, detailed, 8k"
+image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=30).images[0]
+```
+
+This takes 7.36 seconds:
+

+
+</div>
+
+## Running inference in bfloat16
+
+Enable the first optimization: use a reduced precision to run the inference. 
+
+```python
+from diffusers import StableDiffusionXLPipeline
+import torch
+
+pipe = StableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
+	"stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
+).to("cuda")
+
+# Run the attention ops without efficiency.
+pipe.unet.set_default_attn_processor()
+pipe.vae.set_default_attn_processor()
+
+prompt = "Astronaut in a jungle, cold color palette, muted colors, detailed, 8k"
+image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=30).images[0]
+```
+
+bfloat16 reduces the latency from 7.36 seconds to 4.63 seconds:
+
+<div align="center">
+
+<img src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/sayakpaul/sample-datasets/resolve/main/progressive-acceleration-sdxl/SDXL%2C_Batch_Size%3A_1%2C_Steps%3A_30_1.png" width=500>
+
+</div>
+
+**Why bfloat16?** 
+
+* Using a reduced numerical precision (such as float16, bfloat16) to run inference doesn’t affect the generation quality but significantly improves latency. 
+* The benefits of using the bfloat16 numerical precision as compared to float16 are hardware-dependent. Modern generations of GPUs tend to favor bfloat16. 
+* Furthermore, in our experiments, we bfloat16 to be much more resilient when used with quantization in comparison to float16.  
+
+We have a [dedicated guide](../optimization/fp16.md) for running inference in a reduced precision. 
+
+## Running attention efficiently
+
+Attention blocks are intensive to run. But with PyTorch's [`scaled_dot_product_attention`](../optimization/torch2.0.md), we can run them efficiently. 
+
+```python
+from diffusers import StableDiffusionXLPipeline
+import torch
+
+pipe = StableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
+	"stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
+).to("cuda")
+
+prompt = "Astronaut in a jungle, cold color palette, muted colors, detailed, 8k"
+image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=30).images[0]
+```
+
+`scaled_dot_product_attention` improves the latency from 4.63 seconds to 3.31 seconds.

+
+</div>
+
+## Use faster kernels with torch.compile
+
+Compile the UNet and the VAE to benefit from the faster kernels. First, configure a few compiler flags:
+
+```python
+from diffusers import StableDiffusionXLPipeline
+import torch
+
+torch._inductor.config.conv_1x1_as_mm = True
+torch._inductor.config.coordinate_descent_tuning = True
+torch._inductor.config.epilogue_fusion = False
+torch._inductor.config.coordinate_descent_check_all_directions = True
+```
+
+For the full list of compiler flags, refer to [this file](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/_inductor/config.py).
+
+It is also important to change the memory layout of the UNet and the VAE to “channels_last” when compiling them. This ensures maximum speed:
+
+```python
+pipe.unet.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
+pipe.vae.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
+```
+
+Then, compile and perform inference:
+
+```python
+# Compile the UNet and VAE.
+pipe.unet = torch.compile(pipe.unet, mode="max-autotune", fullgraph=True)
+pipe.vae.decode = torch.compile(pipe.vae.decode, mode="max-autotune", fullgraph=True)
+
+prompt = "Astronaut in a jungle, cold color palette, muted colors, detailed, 8k"
+
+# First call to `pipe` will be slow, subsequent ones will be faster.
+image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=30).images[0]
+```
+
+`torch.compile` offers different backends and modes. As we’re aiming for maximum inference speed, we opt for the inductor backend using the “max-autotune”. “max-autotune” uses CUDA graphs and optimizes the compilation graph specifically for latency. Specifying fullgraph to be True ensures that there are no graph breaks in the underlying model, ensuring the fullest potential of `torch.compile`. 
+
+Using SDPA attention and compiling both the UNet and VAE reduces the latency from 3.31 seconds to 2.54 seconds. 
+
+<div align="center">
+
+<img src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/sayakpaul/sample-datasets/resolve/main/progressive-acceleration-sdxl/SDXL%2C_Batch_Size%3A_1%2C_Steps%3A_30_3.png" width=500>
+
+</div>
+
+## Combine the projection matrices of attention
+
+Both the UNet and the VAE used in SDXL make use of Transformer-like blocks. A Transformer block consists of attention blocks and feed-forward blocks. 
+
+In an attention block, the input is projected into three sub-spaces using three different projection matrices – Q, K, and V. In the naive implementation, these projections are performed separately on the input. But we can horizontally combine the projection matrices into a single matrix and perform the projection in one shot. This increases the size of the matmuls of the input projections and improves the impact of quantization (to be discussed next). 
+
+Enabling this kind of computation in Diffusers just takes a single line of code:
+
+```python
+pipe.fuse_qkv_projections()
+```
+
+It provides a minor boost from 2.54 seconds to 2.52 seconds. 
+

+
+<img src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/sayakpaul/sample-datasets/resolve/main/progressive-acceleration-sdxl/SDXL%2C_Batch_Size%3A_1%2C_Steps%3A_30_4.png" width=500>
+
+</div>
+
+<Tip warning={true}>
+
+Support for `fuse_qkv_projections()` is limited and experimental. As such, it's not available for many non-SD pipelines such as [Kandinsky](../using-diffusers/kandinsky.md). You can refer to [this PR](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/pull/6179) to get an idea about how to support this kind of computation.
+
+</Tip>
+
+## Dynamic quantization
+
+Aapply [dynamic int8 quantization](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/recipes/recipes/dynamic_quantization.html) to both the UNet and the VAE. This is because quantization adds additional conversion overhead to the model that is hopefully made up for by faster matmuls (dynamic quantization). If the matmuls are too small, these techniques may degrade performance.
+
+<Tip>
+
+Through experimentation, we found that certain linear layers in the UNet and the VAE don’t benefit from dynamic int8 quantization. You can check out the full code for filtering those layers [here](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusion-fast/blob/0f169640b1db106fe6a479f78c1ed3bfaeba3386/utils/pipeline_utils.py#L16) (referred to as `dynamic_quant_filter_fn` below). 
+
+</Tip>
+
+You will leverage the ultra-lightweight pure PyTorch library [torchao](https://github.com/pytorch-labs/ao) to use its user-friendly APIs for quantization. 
+
+First, configure all the compiler tags:
+
+```python
+from diffusers import StableDiffusionXLPipeline
+import torch 
+
+# Notice the two new flags at the end.
+torch._inductor.config.conv_1x1_as_mm = True
+torch._inductor.config.coordinate_descent_tuning = True
+torch._inductor.config.epilogue_fusion = False
+torch._inductor.config.coordinate_descent_check_all_directions = True
+torch._inductor.config.force_fuse_int_mm_with_mul = True
+torch._inductor.config.use_mixed_mm = True
+```
+
+Define the filtering functions:
+
+```python
+def dynamic_quant_filter_fn(mod, *args):
+    return (
+        isinstance(mod, torch.nn.Linear)
+        and mod.in_features > 16
+        and (mod.in_features, mod.out_features)
+        not in [
+            (1280, 640),
+            (1920, 1280),
+            (1920, 640),
+            (2048, 1280),
+            (2048, 2560),
+            (2560, 1280),
+            (256, 128),
+            (2816, 1280),
+            (320, 640),
+            (512, 1536),
+            (512, 256),
+            (512, 512),
+            (640, 1280),
+            (640, 1920),
+            (640, 320),
+            (640, 5120),
+            (640, 640),
+            (960, 320),
+            (960, 640),
+        ]
+    )
+
+
+def conv_filter_fn(mod, *args):
+    return (
+        isinstance(mod, torch.nn.Conv2d) and mod.kernel_size == (1, 1) and 128 in [mod.in_channels, mod.out_channels]
+    )
+```
+
+Then apply all the optimizations discussed so far:
+
+```python
+# SDPA + bfloat16.
+pipe = StableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
+	"stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
+).to("cuda")
+
+# Combine attention projection matrices.
+pipe.fuse_qkv_projections()
+
+# Change the memory layout.
+pipe.unet.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
+pipe.vae.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
+```
+
+Since this quantization support is limited to linear layers only, we also turn suitable pointwise convolution layers into linear layers to maximize the benefit.
+
+```python
+from torchao import swap_conv2d_1x1_to_linear
+
+swap_conv2d_1x1_to_linear(pipe.unet, conv_filter_fn)
+swap_conv2d_1x1_to_linear(pipe.vae, conv_filter_fn)
+```
+
+Apply dynamic quantization:
+
+```python
+from torchao import apply_dynamic_quant
+
+apply_dynamic_quant(pipe.unet, dynamic_quant_filter_fn)
+apply_dynamic_quant(pipe.vae, dynamic_quant_filter_fn)
+```
+
+Finally, compile and perform inference:
+
+```python
+pipe.unet = torch.compile(pipe.unet, mode="max-autotune", fullgraph=True)
+pipe.vae.decode = torch.compile(pipe.vae.decode, mode="max-autotune", fullgraph=True)
+
+prompt = "Astronaut in a jungle, cold color palette, muted colors, detailed, 8k"
+image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=30).images[0]
+```
+
+Applying dynamic quantization improves the latency from 2.52 seconds to 2.43 seconds.
