Description
BaseRT offers a robust inference runtime for LLMs specifically optimized for Apple Silicon, allowing developers to seamlessly access models from Hugging Face, engage in local conversations, or utilize an API compatible with OpenAI through a single command-line interface. Enhanced by meticulously crafted Metal kernels, BaseRT aims to provide exceptional prefill and decoding efficiency on M-series Macs, with benchmark results indicating it performs up to 6.4 times faster in prefill tasks compared to llama.cpp, 3.9 times faster than MLX, and achieves a decoding speed that is 1.33 times quicker. The basert CLI is equipped to manage tasks such as model downloading, conversion, interactive chat, serving capabilities, completion generation, benchmarking, inspection, and bundle signing. Its server functionalities are extensive, encompassing chat interactions, text completions, embeddings, transcription services, tool calls, continuous batching, paged key-value caching, and prefix caching, with support for models that can handle text, vision, and audio data. BaseRT employs a proprietary .base model format that incorporates Q2–Q8 affine quantization, optional AWQ calibration, and signed bundles, and it is capable of converting GGUF, Hugging Face, and MLX checkpoints. Furthermore, this innovative runtime is tailored to maximize the capabilities of Apple Silicon, making it an essential tool for developers in the AI space.
