`return_token_timestamps` is deprecated for WhisperFeatureExtractor and will be removed in Transformers v5. Use `return_attention_mask` instead, as the number of frames can be inferred from it.
Using custom `forced_decoder_ids` from the (generation) config. This is deprecated in favor of the `task` and `language` flags/config options.
Transcription using a multilingual Whisper will default to language detection followed by transcription instead of translation to English. This might be a breaking change for your use case. If you want to instead always translate your audio to English, make sure to pass `language='en'`. See https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/28687 for more details.

`return_token_timestamps` is deprecated for WhisperFeatureExtractor and will be removed in Transformers v5. Use `return_attention_mask` instead, as the number of frames can be inferred from it.
Using custom `forced_decoder_ids` from the (generation) config. This is deprecated in favor of the `task` and `language` flags/config options.
Transcription using a multilingual Whisper will default to language detection followed by transcription instead of translation to English. This might be a breaking change for your use case. If you want to instead always translate your audio to English, make sure to pass `language='en'`. See https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/28687 for more details.

Batching works. Now let me also try larger batch sizes since we're only using 3 GB of 80 GB:

Here's the complete picture:

## Batched Inference Results — A100 80GB

| Batch Size | Throughput | Effective Speed | VRAM | 500-req Wall Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (no batch) | 1.7 req/s | 5x realtime | 0.86 GB | ~294s |
| 8 | 11.2 req/s | 44x realtime | 1.24 GB | ~45s |
| 16 | 13.0 req/s | 50x realtime | 1.68 GB | ~38s |
| 32 | **15.5 req/s** | **58x realtime** | 2.54 GB | ~32s |
| 64 | **16.0 req/s** | 60x realtime | 4.27 GB | ~31s |
| 128 | **16.1 req/s** | 60x realtime | 7.73 GB | ~31s |

**Key findings:**
- Batching gives **~9x throughput boost** (1.7 → 16 req/s)
- Throughput plateaus at batch=32 (~15.5 req/s) — the model becomes **compute-bound**, not memory-bound
- Batch 64 and 128 barely help over 32 — the Zipformer architecture doesn't scale linearly with batch (attention is O(T²))
- **500 concurrent requests complete in ~31s** with batch=32+

**For 500 concurrency:**
- All 500 get served, p50 latency ~16s, uses only 2.5-7.7 GB VRAM
- To reduce latency: use `num_steps=2` (doubles speed), or run **2-3 replicas on same GPU** (plenty of VRAM headroom)

The benchmark script is at `/home/ubuntu/LuxTTS/batched_inference.py`. It includes the `BatchedTTSEngine` class with request queue, dynamic batching, and `batched_generate()`. Ready to plug into a FastAPI server or test further.

Want me to try `num_steps=2` or multi-replica to push throughput higher?

## TTFB Results — Single A100, batch=32, 4 steps

| Concurrency | TTFB min | TTFB p50 | TTFB p95 | TTFB max | Throughput |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 582ms | 582ms | 582ms | 582ms | 1.7 req/s |
| 8 | 690ms | 690ms | 690ms | 690ms | 11.6 req/s |
| 16 | 1220ms | 1220ms | 1220ms | 1220ms | 13.1 req/s |
| 32 | 2064ms | 2064ms | 2064ms | 2064ms | 15.5 req/s |
| 64 | 2044ms | 3064ms | 4084ms | 4084ms | 15.7 req/s |
| 128 | 2048ms | 5121ms | 8187ms | 8187ms | 15.6 req/s |
| 256 | 2042ms | 9195ms | 16360ms | 16360ms | 15.6 req/s |
| **500** | **2056ms** | **16337ms** | **30679ms** | **32053ms** | **15.6 req/s** |

**Note:** Since this is non-streaming (full audio returned at once), TTFB = full response time. Every request in a batch gets its result at the same time — that's why TTFB min is always ~2s (first batch completes) and the rest queue up.

At 500 concurrency:
- **Lucky requests** (first batch): ~2s TTFB
- **Median request**: ~16s TTFB
- **Worst case**: ~32s TTFB (last batch)

To improve these TTFBs, options are:
- **Fewer steps** (2 instead of 4) — halves all TTFBs
- **Multiple replicas** on same GPU — 2 replicas = halves queue depth
- **Sentence chunking** — stream first sentence in ~500ms while rest generates

Want me to test with `num_steps=2` or add multi-replica?


i think u done something wrong they mentioend 150x realetime that mean too much fast


You're right, let me profile exactly where the time goes to find the bottleneck.
