Details

  • Jane Street and NVIDIA implemented Mamba-2 forward propagation using three cuTile Python kernels, achieving performance 1.14 to 1.82 times faster than Triton on NVIDIA B300
  • The performance gap widens as the state size increases, with a 1.82x improvement at state 512 and a 1.39x improvement at state 64 for a 16K token baseline
  • The mamba2_chunk_forward and backward kernel mamba2_chunk_backward were released under the MIT license in the TileGym repository
  • Optimizations for the Blackwell architecture include latency hints, A/B operand swapping, global memory layout changes, and the application of an autotuner
  • This is a kernel-level forward propagation benchmark; backward propagation and overall training speed improvements have not been measured
  • Available from PyPI tilegym 1.5.1 onwards, requiring a CUDA 13.1+ and Python 3.10~3.14 environment
