Purpose

  • Avoid calling _get_unique_quant_args in non-save compressed case, which can be expensive

Changes

  • Check for not save_compressed earlier within infer_quantization_format function

Summary of Changes

Hello @kylesayrs, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on a minor but impactful speedup for the infer_quantization_format function. The primary change involves restructuring the conditional logic to allow for an early exit when save_compressed is False, thereby avoiding unnecessary processing. Additionally, it cleans up an unused import and adds a new edge case check for robustness.

Highlights

  • Performance Optimization: The infer_quantization_format function has been optimized to include an early exit when save_compressed is False. This change ensures that the function returns immediately without performing unnecessary computations like _get_unique_quant_args(model), which can be computationally intensive.
  • Code Refinement: Removed the import and usage of is_model_quantized from quantization_format.py as its check is no longer required due to the reordered logic and early exit condition.
  • Improved Edge Case Handling: Added a new early return condition within infer_quantization_format to handle cases where _get_unique_quant_args returns no weight arguments, ensuring a None is returned appropriately.
