ci: bench: support sse and fix prompt processing time / server: add tokens usage in stream OAI response (#6495)
* ci: bench: support sse and fix prompt processing time
server: add tokens usage in stream mode

* ci: bench: README.md EOL

* ci: bench: remove total pp and tg as it is not accurate

* ci: bench: fix case when there is no token generated

* ci: bench: change to the 95 percentile for pp and tg as it is closer to what the server exports in metrics

* ci: bench: fix finish reason rate

Server benchmark tools

Benchmark is using k6.

Install k6 and sse extension

SSE is not supported by default in k6, you have to build k6 with the xk6-sse extension.

Example:

go install go.k6.io/xk6/cmd/xk6@latest
xk6 build master \
--with github.com/phymbert/xk6-sse

Download a dataset

This dataset was originally proposed in vLLM benchmarks.

wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/anon8231489123/ShareGPT_Vicuna_unfiltered/resolve/main/ShareGPT_V3_unfiltered_cleaned_split.json

Download a model

Example for PHI-2

../../../scripts/hf.sh --repo ggml-org/models --file phi-2/ggml-model-q4_0.gguf

Start the server

The server must answer OAI Chat completion requests on http://localhost:8080/v1 or according to the environment variable SERVER_BENCH_URL.

Example:

server --host localhost --port 8080 \
  --model ggml-model-q4_0.gguf \
  --cont-batching \
  --metrics \
  --parallel 8 \
  --batch-size 512 \
  --ctx-size 4096 \
  --log-format text \
  -ngl 33

Run the benchmark

For 500 chat completions request with 8 concurrent users during maximum 10 minutes, run:

./k6 run script.js --duration 10m --iterations 500 --vus 8

The benchmark values can be overridden with:

  • SERVER_BENCH_URL server url prefix for chat completions, default http://localhost:8080/v1
  • SERVER_BENCH_N_PROMPTS total prompts to randomly select in the benchmark, default 480
  • SERVER_BENCH_MODEL_ALIAS model alias to pass in the completion request, default my-model
  • SERVER_BENCH_MAX_TOKENS max tokens to predict, default: 512
  • SERVER_BENCH_DATASET path to the benchmark dataset file
  • SERVER_BENCH_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS maximum prompt tokens to filter out in the dataset: default 1024
  • SERVER_BENCH_MAX_CONTEXT maximum context size of the completions request to filter out in the dataset: prompt + predicted tokens, default 2048

Note: the local tokenizer is just a string space split, real number of tokens will differ.

Or with k6 options:

SERVER_BENCH_N_PROMPTS=500 k6 run script.js --duration 10m --iterations 500 --vus 8

To debug http request use --http-debug="full".

Metrics

Following metrics are available computed from the OAI chat completions response usage:

  • llamacpp_tokens_second Trend of usage.total_tokens / request duration
  • llamacpp_prompt_tokens Trend of usage.prompt_tokens
  • llamacpp_prompt_tokens_total_counter Counter of usage.prompt_tokens
  • llamacpp_completion_tokens Trend of usage.completion_tokens
  • llamacpp_completion_tokens_total_counter Counter of usage.completion_tokens
  • llamacpp_completions_truncated_rate Rate of completions truncated, i.e. if finish_reason === 'length'
  • llamacpp_completions_stop_rate Rate of completions stopped by the model, i.e. if finish_reason === 'stop'

The script will fail if too many completions are truncated, see llamacpp_completions_truncated_rate.

K6 metrics might be compared against server metrics, with:

curl http://localhost:8080/metrics

Using the CI python script

The bench.py script does several steps:

  • start the server
  • define good variable for k6
  • run k6 script
  • extract metrics from prometheus

It aims to be used in the CI, but you can run it manually:

LLAMA_SERVER_BIN_PATH=../../../cmake-build-release/bin/server python bench.py \
              --runner-label local \
              --name local \
              --branch `git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD` \
              --commit `git rev-parse HEAD` \
              --scenario script.js \
              --duration 5m \
              --hf-repo ggml-org/models	 \
              --hf-file phi-2/ggml-model-q4_0.gguf \
              --model-path-prefix models \
              --parallel 4 \
              -ngl 33 \
              --batch-size 2048 \
              --ubatch-size	256 \
              --ctx-size 4096 \
              --n-prompts 200 \
              --max-prompt-tokens 256 \
              --max-tokens 256
