Summary of Changes

Hello @fzyzcjy, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request aims to reintroduce a critical memory optimization that was inadvertently removed in a previous change. The core purpose is to reduce overall memory consumption by ensuring that temporary weight scale tensors are explicitly deallocated once their data has been utilized. This change helps maintain efficient resource usage within the system.

Highlights

  • Memory Optimization Reintroduction: This pull request reintroduces a previously existing memory optimization that was accidentally removed. It explicitly deletes intermediate weight scale tensors (w13_weight_scale and w2_weight_scale) after they have been processed and their data copied to their swizzled counterparts.
  • Resource Management: By adding explicit 'del' statements, the PR ensures that temporary weight scale data is promptly released from memory, preventing unnecessary memory retention during the model's weight processing phase.

Code Review

This pull request reintroduces a memory usage fix by deleting w13_weight_scale and w2_weight_scale attributes from the layer object after they are used in ModelOptNvFp4FusedMoEMethod.process_weights_after_loading. This is a good practice for memory optimization, especially during model loading, as it frees up memory from tensors that are no longer needed. The change is correct and well-contained.
