Agent swarm writes 10,000 lines of fused Hopper decode kernels, up to 38% faster
Overview
mgoin used an agent swarm to write 10,000 lines of ultra-fused kernels for NVIDIA Hopper GPUs that improve decode speed by up to 38%, according to a post from SemiAnalysis.
The post says NVIDIA's decode-specialized software has focused mainly on Blackwell Ultra and Rubin, with little support for Hopper or Blackwell.
The report comes from a single X post by SemiAnalysis. It does not include benchmark details, the models tested, or the hardware configurations behind the 38% figure.
