Overview

This major release includes the following changes:

and more

Full GPU support

On Apple Silicon, GPU support has been available to a large extend since 15 Sep. However, part of the Encoder was still being executed on the CPU due to lack of MSL kernels for the convolution operations. These kernels are now available resulting in additional speed-up of the Encoder in this release:

Encoder performance on Apple M1 Max - before and after (plot by @dreness)

For NVIDIA hardware, the entire computation can now be offloaded to the GPU which results in significant performance boost. For detailed performance breakdown, checkout the Benchmarks section below.

The GPU processing on Apple Silicon is enabled by default, while for NVIDIA you need to build with WHISPER_CUBLAS=1:

# Apple Silicon
make

# NVIDIA
WHISPER_CUBLAS=1 make

Batched decoding + efficient Beam Search

At last, whisper.cpp now supports efficient Beam Search decoding. The missing piece was the implementation of batched decoding, which now follows closely the unified KV cache idea from llama.cpp. On modern NVIDIA hardware, the performance with 5 beams is the same as 1 beam thanks to the large amount of computing power available. With Metal, the speed with 5 beams is a bit slower compared to 1 beam, but it is significantly faster compared to 5x times the time for single batch which was observed with the old naive implementation.

Beam Search is now enabled by default in whisper.cpp to match the OG implementation of OpenAI Whisper. For more performance details, checkout the Benchmarks section below.

Implementation: https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/pull/1486

Quantization support

All ggml quantization types are now supported. Quantization mixtures for Whisper model can be implemented. It's still unclear how the quality is affected from the quantization - this is an interesting area which can be explored in the future.

Grammar sampling

The decoder output can now be constrained with a GBNF grammar. This can be a useful technique for further improving the transcription quality in situations where the set of possible phrases are limited.

Distil Whisper

Recently, Distil Whisper models have been released: https://huggingface.co/distil-whisper

whisper.cpp offers support for these models, although it still lacks full implementation of the proposed chunking strategy. Performance details for distilled models are included in the Benchmarks section below.

Implementation: https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/pull/1424

Whisper Large-v3

Recently, OpenAI released a new version 3 of the Large model: https://github.com/openai/whisper/pull/1761

Implementation: https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/pull/1444

Benchmarks

Below is a breakdown of the performance of whisper.cpp on Apple Silicon, NVIDIA and CPU. The tables show the Encoder and Decoder speed in ms/tok. The Dec. column corresponds to batch size 1. The Bch5 column corresponds to batch size 5. The PP column corresponds to batch size 128.

For optimal Beam Search performance, the Bch5 number should be 5 times smaller than Dec.

There might be some instability around the API, especially with the existing language bindings. I wasn't able to test everything, so expect some issues and feel free to submit PRs with any kind of fixes that you find.

Highlights and what's next

A lot of the updates in these release are possible thanks to the many contributions in llama.cpp - huge shoutout to all the contributors and collaborators there!

Regarding future updates to whisper.cpp, I'm looking forward to the following things:
