The documentation provides a practical code example for integrating the Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-1M model with the vLLM framework, aimed at handling large-context language model workloads. The setup leverages specific vLLM features to efficiently manage extensive prompts, with model configuration facilitating support for context lengths up to one million tokens. This is crucial for advanced Artificial Intelligence tasks that require memory of large documents or sequences.
The example script outlines the process from environment variable configuration, which includes enabling dual-chunk flash attention and long context support, to model initialization with fine-tuned parameters such as maximum model length, tensor parallelism, and chunked prefill for optimized inference. The script programmatically downloads a sample prompt from Qwen resources, illustrating various prompt length scenarios from 64,000 to 1,000,000 tokens, with a specific example loading a 600,000-token prompt to test model behavior under real-world, large-scale input conditions.
Further, the workflow includes preparing custom sampling parameters, such as temperature, top-p, top-k, repetition penalty, and a cap on maximum tokens generated, enabling nuanced control over output generation. The script processes the prompts, performs inference, and provides runtime details like prompt length and the generated output. Developers can use this template to benchmark or develop downstream applications requiring high-efficiency, long-context generative capabilities with state-of-the-art language models within the vLLM ecosystem.
