# PyTorch 2.0

🤗 Diffusers supports the latest optimizations from [PyTorch 2.0](https://pytorch.org/get-started/pytorch-2.0/) which include:

1. A memory-efficient attention implementation, scaled dot product attention, without requiring any extra dependencies such as xFormers.
2. [`torch.compile`](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/torch_compile_tutorial.html), a just-in-time (JIT) compiler to provide an extra performance boost when individual models are compiled.

Both of these optimizations require PyTorch 2.0 or later and 🤗 Diffusers > 0.13.0.

```bash
pip install --upgrade torch diffusers
```

## Scaled dot product attention

[`torch.nn.functional.scaled_dot_product_attention`](https://pytorch.org/docs/master/generated/torch.nn.functional.scaled_dot_product_attention) (SDPA) is an optimized and memory-efficient attention (similar to xFormers) that automatically enables several other optimizations depending on the model inputs and GPU type. SDPA is enabled by default if you're using PyTorch 2.0 and the latest version of 🤗 Diffusers, so you don't need to add anything to your code.

However, if you want to explicitly enable it, you can set a [`DiffusionPipeline`] to use [`~models.attention_processor.AttnProcessor2_0`]:

```diff
  import torch
  from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
+ from diffusers.models.attention_processor import AttnProcessor2_0

  pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5/stable-diffusion-v1-5", torch_dtype=torch.float16, use_safetensors=True).to("cuda")
+ pipe.unet.set_attn_processor(AttnProcessor2_0())

  prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
  image = pipe(prompt).images[0]
```

SDPA should be as fast and memory efficient as `xFormers`; check the [benchmark](#benchmark) for more details.

In some cases - such as making the pipeline more deterministic or converting it to other formats - it may be helpful to use the vanilla attention processor, [`~models.attention_processor.AttnProcessor`]. To revert to [`~models.attention_processor.AttnProcessor`], call the [`~UNet2DConditionModel.set_default_attn_processor`] function on the pipeline:

```diff
  import torch
  from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline

  pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5/stable-diffusion-v1-5", torch_dtype=torch.float16, use_safetensors=True).to("cuda")
+ pipe.unet.set_default_attn_processor()

  prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
  image = pipe(prompt).images[0]
```

## torch.compile

The `torch.compile` function can often provide an additional speed-up to your PyTorch code. In 🤗 Diffusers, it is usually best to wrap the UNet with `torch.compile` because it does most of the heavy lifting in the pipeline.

```python
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
import torch

pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5/stable-diffusion-v1-5", torch_dtype=torch.float16, use_safetensors=True).to("cuda")
pipe.unet = torch.compile(pipe.unet, mode="reduce-overhead", fullgraph=True)
images = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=steps, num_images_per_prompt=batch_size).images[0]
```

Depending on GPU type, `torch.compile` can provide an *additional speed-up* of **5-300x** on top of SDPA! If you're using more recent GPU architectures such as Ampere (A100, 3090), Ada (4090), and Hopper (H100), `torch.compile` is able to squeeze even more performance out of these GPUs.

Compilation requires some time to complete, so it is best suited for situations where you prepare your pipeline once and then perform the same type of inference operations multiple times. For example, calling the compiled pipeline on a different image size triggers compilation again which can be expensive.

For more information and different options about `torch.compile`, refer to the [`torch_compile`](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/torch_compile_tutorial.html) tutorial.

> [!TIP]
> Learn more about other ways PyTorch 2.0 can help optimize your model in the [Accelerate inference of text-to-image diffusion models](../tutorials/fast_diffusion) tutorial.

### Regional compilation

Compiling the whole model usually has a big problem space for optimization. Models are often composed of multiple repeated blocks. [Regional compilation](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/recipes/regional_compilation.html) compiles the repeated block first (a transformer encoder block, for example), so that the Torch compiler would re-use its cached/optimized generated code for the other blocks, reducing (often massively) the cold start compilation time observed on the first inference call.

Enabling regional compilation might require simple yet intrusive changes to the
modeling code. However, 🤗 Accelerate provides a utility [`compile_regions()`](https://huggingface.co/docs/accelerate/main/en/usage_guides/compilation#how-to-use-regional-compilation) which automatically compiles
the repeated blocks of the provided `nn.Module` sequentially, and the rest of the model separately. This helps with reducing cold start time while keeping most (if not all) of the speedup you would get from full compilation.

```py
# Make sure you're on the latest `accelerate`: `pip install -U accelerate`.
from accelerate.utils import compile_regions

pipe.unet = compile_regions(pipe.unet, mode="reduce-overhead", fullgraph=True)
```

As you may have noticed `compile_regions()` takes the same arguments as `torch.compile()`, allowing flexibility.

## Benchmark

We conducted a comprehensive benchmark with PyTorch 2.0's efficient attention implementation and `torch.compile` across different GPUs and batch sizes for five of our most used pipelines. The code is benchmarked on 🤗 Diffusers v0.17.0.dev0 to optimize `torch.compile` usage (see [here](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/pull/3313) for more details).

## Notes

* Follow this [PR](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/pull/3313) for more details on the environment used for conducting the benchmarks.
* For the DeepFloyd IF pipeline where batch sizes > 1, we only used a batch size of > 1 in the first IF pipeline for text-to-image generation and NOT for upscaling. That means the two upscaling pipelines received a batch size of 1.

*Thanks to [Horace He](https://github.com/Chillee) from the PyTorch team for their support in improving our support of `torch.compile()` in Diffusers.*
