Changes
Cast
fns.quantile()
result to float32 inside AWQ algorithm.Reason for changes
fns.quantile()
for numpy backend returnsnp.float64
value. In AWQ it is used as a clip lower bound, resulting in float64 result. Then via chain reaction it leads to weights and activations being converted to float64.As I understand, processing in float64 is not necessary. At the same time it leads to increased running time. Below are measurements for compression time with AWQ enabled before and after the changes.
