# Int8 Quantization
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Int8 quantization converts BF16/FP16 weights to Int8 at model load time. No calibration or pre-quantized checkpoint needed.
|
|
|
|
Depending on the model, either all layers can be quantized, or some sensitive layers should stay in BF16/FP16. See the [per-model table](#supported-models) for which case applies.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
1. **Python API**: set `quantization="int8"`. To skip sensitive layers, use `quantization_config` with `ignored_layers`.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from vllm_omni import Omni
|
|
from vllm_omni.inputs.data import OmniDiffusionSamplingParams
|
|
|
|
# All layers quantized
|
|
omni = Omni(model="<your-model>", quantization="int8")
|
|
|
|
# Skip sensitive layers
|
|
omni = Omni(
|
|
model="<your-model>",
|
|
quantization_config={
|
|
"method": "int8",
|
|
"ignored_layers": ["<layer-name>"],
|
|
},
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
outputs = omni.generate(
|
|
"A cat sitting on a windowsill",
|
|
OmniDiffusionSamplingParams(num_inference_steps=50),
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **CLI**: pass `--quantization int8` and optionally `--ignored-layers`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# All layers
|
|
python text_to_image.py --model <your-model> --quantization int8
|
|
|
|
# Skip sensitive layers
|
|
python text_to_image.py --model <your-model> --quantization int8 --ignored-layers "img_mlp"
|
|
|
|
# Online serving
|
|
vllm serve <your-model> --omni --quantization int8
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|
|
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
|
|
| `method` | str | — | Quantization method (`"int8"`) |
|
|
| `ignored_layers` | list[str] | `[]` | Layer name patterns to keep in BF16/FP16 |
|
|
| `activation_scheme` | str | `"dynamic"` | `"dynamic"` (no calibration) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The available `ignored_layers` names depend on the model architecture (e.g., `to_qkv`, `to_out`, `img_mlp`, `txt_mlp`). Consult the transformer source for your target model.
|
|
|
|
## Supported Models
|
|
|
|
| Model | HF Models | Recommendation | `ignored_layers` |
|
|
|-------|-----------|---------------|------------------|
|
|
| Z-Image | `Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo` | All layers | None |
|
|
| Qwen-Image | `Qwen/Qwen-Image`, `Qwen/Qwen-Image-2512` | All layers | None |
|
|
|
|
## Combining with Other Features
|
|
|
|
Int8 quantization can be combined with cache acceleration:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
omni = Omni(
|
|
model="<your-model>",
|
|
quantization="int8",
|
|
cache_backend="tea_cache",
|
|
cache_config={"rel_l1_thresh": 0.2},
|
|
)
|
|
```
