Optimize BSS use of FFT with cupy, speed up of up to 3x for full tracks

sevagh opened this issue · 6 comments

Hello,
I have been working on some potential performance optimizations for the BSS evaluation (which is rather slow/compute intensive for full tracks).

Baseline measurement with original museval code (the total execution involves also computing the IRM, adapted from https://github.com/sigsep/sigsep-mus-oracle/blob/master/IRM.py):

museval bss original execution time, 1 track of musdb
pybin: /home/sevagh/venvs/museval-orig/bin/python3
evaluating track AM Contra - Heart Peripheral

real    3m22.702s
user    3m21.577s
sys     0m39.376s

The original code takes ~3:20 minutes.

The second optimization uses cupy and the GPU, which is in my opinion a big cost/burden for end users. Installing the CUDA toolkit etc. is no joke. Here is the code: master...sevagh:feat/cupy-accel
However, the performance is rather good at ~1:20 minutes, so maybe almost ~3x faster than the original code:

museval bss optimization 2 (cupy on gpu) execution time, 1 track of musdb
pybin: /home/sevagh/venvs/museval-optimization-2/bin/python3
evaluating track AM Contra - Heart Peripheral

real    1m19.801s
user    1m27.077s
sys     0m29.615s

One final note is that the CUDA/cupy version has slight differences in the outputs due to numerical precision differences. It doesn't look too significant to me - here's an excerpt of a diff between the evaluated json files, showing small differences in the BSS scores:

I'm also trying to find a way to use CPU parallelism with scipy.fft and combining several of the FFTs in a single call, but this isn't really helping as much as the CUDA change. My code attempts can be seen here: master...sevagh:multiple-1d-fft

I'm aware of the separate repo for bss at https://github.com/sigsep/bsseval/ but I wasn't sure which project to discuss it in - I'm using museval because I'm trying to recreate the SiSec 2018 testbench.

Also there could be a "super-performant" config with cupy, stacking multiple 1D FFTs (respecting GPU memory allocation limits), and using pinned host/gpu memory and FFT plans - I'll continue working in that direction.

Optimized every slow line (discovered through kernprof + line_profiler): master...sevagh:feat/cupy-accel

This leads to just about 1 minute to compute the IRM mask and perform a BSS evaluation on 1 full-length MUSDB18 track:

real    1m1.762s
user    0m50.948s
sys     0m13.620s

This is down from the 3+ minutes originally:

real    3m22.702s
user    3m21.577s
sys     0m39.376s

@sevagh i think this would be great. Do the regression tests pass using this?

How can I run the tests? python setup.py test?

install the test evironment pip install .[tests] and then run

py.test tests/test_regression.py -vs

OK. My most recent commits get the regression tests passing. Casting explicitly to float32 was creating huge errors in SAR/SIR/ISR, so I just removed them.

I made the cupy install optional (although fixed to CUDA 11.4, which is rather recent).

Other notes/idiosyncrasies is that it's best to clear the cupy FFT cache between BSS evaluations of large songs. That's why I added this helper function:
master...sevagh:feat/cupy-accel#diff-cc17d32a9d811e616624c2f2699f853dd06b143931ea9e37a6cc0dab6a4b8ab9R75-R88

In real code you would do:

for track in mus.tracks:
    ...
    scores = museval.eval_mus_track(...) # cupy under the hood
    museval.clear_cupy_cache()

Passing regression test:
