Description

I am running MLPerf Inference datacenter suite on a CPU only device following the instructions on the documentation.

The suggested sample size/query counts seem to take a very long time to reach completion.

  1. Would it be possible to query intermediate results (such as throughput) when the benchmark is executing?
  2. How are the sample sizes correlated with the accuracy of results? For instance, does llama2 CPU run need the same sample count (24576) as GPU? This is suggested here

I see the following prints on my terminal, but I am not sure how to interpret these results:

Research direction

Start with the linked MLPerf Inference Llama 2 70B documentation and the llama2-70b offline instructions. Review how the benchmark reports progress during execution and how the documented sample count relates to CPU and GPU runs; done should be a decided approach for intermediate metrics and clear guidance on sample-size interpretation.
