Implementation of:

Self-attention Does Not Need O(n^2) Memory:
https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.05682v2

Based on Amin Rezaei's implementation:
https://github.com/AminRezaei0x443/memory-efficient-attention

With:

  • substantial rewrite to optimize it for 3D tensors in [batch * num_heads, tokens, channels_per_head] format
  • use batched matmuls
  • fuse multiplies into matmuls
  • simplifications to utility functions (to make more use of pytorch idioms).
  • typings

Nice!

…hannels_per_head] in order to make use of batched matmuls. fuse multiply into matmul. breaks bias, mask in exchange for massive speedup.
…ul for SD 2.1. but remove value float32, having established that it works without.
…to prefer fast-path whenever unchunked attention would fit into memory. add kv_chunk_size_min to control the kv_chunk_size=None behaviour, so that sqrt(key_tokens) does not pick too small of a chunk size
…of chunk key size. improve separation of concerns.
…al kv_chunk_size: they can notice when no chunking would happen at all, and use fast-path. note: there's a question of whether that concern belongs *inside* the algorithm. but it'd feel weird for chunked attention to have a no-chunking-at-all branch.
… equivalent fast-path for 1 query chunk, 1 kv chunk is already supported inside
…ything in one chunk, to re-use an existing fast-path.

this attempts to implement jax.lax.dynamic_slice(), but hey is this literally just torch.narrow()?

Yeah that works also:
brkirch/stable-diffusion-webui@b119815

No notable performance difference that I observed, but it's probably slightly more efficient nonetheless.

Shouldn't torch.zeros() be used here instead of torch.empty()?

nope; it's actually an unused tensor (because beta=0), so we want whatever's the cheapest thing that passes the parameter validation. unfortunately PyTorch complains if you pass None. bad API design.
