InternVL3-38B FP8 Static Quantization Script using LLM Compressor

This script quantizes the OpenGVLab/InternVL3-38B vision-language model to FP8 static 
quantization for optimal performance with vLLM inference. It uses the latest llm-compressor
library (v0.5.1+) with multimodal support.

## Setup

1. **Create a .env file** in the same directory as this script:
   ```bash
   echo "HF_TOKEN=your_huggingface_token_here" > .env
  1. Get your HuggingFace token from https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens

    • You need write access to push models
    • The token will be used to upload the quantized model
  2. Install dependencies:

    pip install llmcompressor>=0.5.1 transformers torch loguru typer python-dotenv datasets
    

Usage

# Using HF_TOKEN from .env file (recommended)
python quantize_internvl3_fp8.py

# Or pass token directly (not recommended for security)
python quantize_internvl3_fp8.py --hf-token <YOUR_HF_TOKEN>

# Skip upload and save locally only
python quantize_internvl3_fp8.py --no-upload

# Disable flash attention (use SDPA attention instead)
python quantize_internvl3_fp8.py --no-flash-attn

# Use eager (standard) attention for maximum compatibility
python quantize_internvl3_fp8.py --no-flash-attn --attn-eager

# Use FP8-Dynamic quantization (no calibration needed)
python quantize_internvl3_fp8.py --dynamic

Quantization Types

FP8-Static (default)

  • Best for: Production deployments, maximum inference performance
  • Pros: Best inference speed, pre-computed scales, optimal for vLLM
  • Cons: Requires calibration dataset, longer quantization process
  • Use when: You want maximum performance and have time for calibration
  • Calibration: Uses text-only datasets (works well for VLMs since language model dominates computation)

FP8-Dynamic

  • Best for: Quick quantization, when calibration data is unavailable
  • Pros: No calibration needed, faster quantization process, simpler setup
  • Cons: Slightly lower inference performance than static
  • Use when: You need quick results or want to avoid calibration complexity (use --dynamic)

Attention Mechanisms

Flash Attention 2 (default)

  • Best for: Modern GPUs (Ampere/Ada Lovelace), production deployments, long sequences
  • Pros: Lowest memory usage (up to 10x reduction), fastest inference, best for large models
  • Cons: Requires compatible GPU, may have issues with some model architectures
  • Use when: You have a modern GPU and want maximum performance

SDPA (Scaled Dot-Product Attention)

  • Best for: Older GPUs, debugging, when flash attention fails
  • Pros: Good performance, wide compatibility, native PyTorch implementation
  • Cons: Higher memory usage than flash attention, slightly slower
  • Use when: Flash attention isn't supported or causes issues (use --no-flash-attn)

Eager (Standard) Attention

  • Best for: Maximum compatibility, debugging attention-related issues
  • Pros: Works everywhere, simplest implementation, easiest to debug
  • Cons: Highest memory usage, slowest performance
  • Use when: Both flash attention and SDPA cause issues (use --no-flash-attn --attn-eager)

Important Notes

  • The script will automatically upload the tokenizer files and README.md to HuggingFace
  • All critical files (tokenizer_config.json, tokenizer.json/model, README.md) are verified before upload
  • The upload process will list all uploaded files with their sizes for verification
  • If upload fails, the quantized model is still saved locally and can be uploaded manually later
  • For optimal vLLM performance, use the default flash attention unless you encounter compatibility issues
  • trust_remote_code_model=True is set by default as required for InternVL3 and most VLM models
  • For better memory management on multi-GPU setups, set: export PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True

Calibration Dataset Notes

  • Text-only datasets work well for VLM quantization since the language model dominates computation
  • Default dataset: open_platypus (reliable, text-only)
  • Supported datasets: open_platypus, ultrachat-200k, wikitext, c4, ptb
  • Automatic fallback: If specified dataset fails, automatically falls back to open_platypus
  • For fastest results: Use --dynamic to skip calibration entirely """

## 🎯 Use Cases

This optimized model is ideal for:

- **Production VLM serving** with high throughput requirements
- **Real-time image analysis** and visual question answering  
- **Document AI** and OCR applications
- **Multimodal chatbots** and virtual assistants
- **Edge deployment** on high-end GPUs

## ⚠️ Important Notes

- Requires GPU with FP8 support (H100, L40S) for optimal performance
- Falls back to FP8-Marlin on Ampere GPUs (A100) with reduced benefits
- Vision components preserved in FP16 for maximum compatibility
- Calibrated with diverse multimodal data for robust performance

## 🚫 Limitations

- **Specialized hardware**: Best performance requires H100-class GPUs
- **Model size**: Still requires significant VRAM despite quantization
- **Research use**: Inherits license and usage restrictions from base model

## πŸ“„ License

This quantized model inherits the license from the original model.
