Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance across various language tasks but pose challenges for practical deployment due to their substantial memory requirements. Furthermore, the latest generative models suffer from high inference costs caused by the memory bandwidth bottleneck in the auto-regressive decoding process. To address these issues, we propose an efficient weight-only quantization method that reduces memory consumption and accelerates inference for LLMs. To ensure minimal quality degradation, we introduce a simple and effective heuristic approach that quantizes only the model weights of a pre-trained model with finer granularity. This approach is applicable to both Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) and dense models without requiring additional fine-tuning. Furthermore, we implement highly efficient GPU GEMMs that perform on-the-fly matrix multiplication and dequantization, supporting the multiplication of fp16 or bf16 activations with int8 or int4 weights. We evaluate our approach on large-scale open source models such as OPT-175B and internal MoE models, showcasing minimal accuracy loss while achieving up to 3.65 times higher throughput on the same number of GPUs.
