🏁BLAS
Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms
Overview
BLAS(Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) is a set of low-level routines for performing common linear algebra operations such as:
vector addition
scalar multiplication
dot products
linear combinations
matrix multiplication
Advantages
BLAS implementations are often optimized for speed on a particular machine.
Vector register
SIMD instructions
So using them can bring substantial performance benefits.
Some performance improvements in prompt processing using batch sizes higher than 32 (the default is 512).
Several BLAS implementations
Apple's implementation
OpenBLAS
Intel's implementation
CBLAS
It is a C-style interface to the BLAS routines that can be called using regular C-style calls
