Llama.cpp: Full CUDA GPU Acceleration
Summary: Johannes Gaessler has submitted a pull request to the llama.cpp repository, which adds full GPU acceleration to all remaining ggml tensors. This update significantly speeds up prompt processing and generation of tokens, particularly for long generations. The PR includes CUDA kernels for scale, cpy, diag_mask_inf, and soft_max, as well as utility functions and performance improvements. However, there are still tasks to be completed, such as fixing VRAM memory leaks, checking performance on lower-end GPUs, and general code cleanup.
