  2. Is this even faster? https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper If so, is the quality still acceptable?

  4. You mean ' https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper ' ? Did not know that until now. I'm running all of that since over ~10 months and just had it running. Happy to try that out. The GPU is fully utilized by using whisper and…

  5. There's a better parallel/batching that works on the 30s chunks resulting in 40X. From HF at https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper This is again not native PyTorch so there's still room to have better RTFX numbers.

  6. …models tend to to have massively hand optimized Nvidia implementations. Whisper is no exception: https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper SDXL is actually an interesting exception for Nvidia because most users still tend to run…

  7. …derivative repo instead - one hour of audio gets transcribed within a minute or less on most GPUs - https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper

  8. How does this compare to insanely-fast-whisper though? https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper I think that not using optimizations allows this to be a 1:1 comparison, but if the optimizations are not ported to MLX, then it…

  9. …I hope the submission gets replaced with the upstream repo so the author gets full credit. :) [0] https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper/pull/42 [1] https://github.com/replicate/cog

  10. …for replicate.com? It is missing the most recent commits from what appears to be the real source: https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper The only added commit is adding a replicate.com example, whatever that means.

  11. …this seems a bit suspicious - this seems like someone just forked another persons active repo ( https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper ) and posted as their own?

  12. …I could find is someone claiming to get a similar time on their RTX3090 on an issue in the repo. https://github.com/Vaibhavs10/insanely-fast-whisper/issues/3...
