Edward Yang 173f224570 Turn on F401: Unused import warning. (#18598)

* **#18598 Turn on F401: Unused import warning.**

This was requested by someone at Facebook; this lint is turned
on for Facebook by default.  "Sure, why not."

I had to noqa a number of imports in __init__.  Hypothetically
we're supposed to use __all__ in this case, but I was too lazy
to fix it.  Left for future work.

Be careful!  flake8-2 and flake8-3 behave differently with
respect to import resolution for # type: comments.  flake8-3 will
report an import unused; flake8-2 will not.  For now, I just
noqa'd all these sites.

All the changes were done by hand.

Fast RNN benchmarks

Benchmarks for TorchScript models

For most stable results, do the following:

  • Set CPU Governor to performance mode (as opposed to energy save)
  • Turn off turbo for all CPUs (assuming Intel CPUs)
  • Shield cpus via cset shield when running benchmarks.

Some of these scripts accept command line args but most of them do not because I was lazy. They will probably be added sometime in the future, but the default sizes are pretty reasonable.

Test fastrnns (fwd + bwd) correctness

Test the fastrnns benchmarking scripts with the following: python -m fastrnns.test or run the test independently: python -m fastrnns.test --rnns jit

Run benchmarks

python -m fastrnns.bench

should give a good comparision, or you can specify the type of model to run

python -m fastrnns.bench --rnns cudnn aten jit --group rnns

Run model profiling, calls nvprof

python -m fastrnns.profile

should generate nvprof file for all models somewhere. you can also specify the models to generate nvprof files separately:

python -m fastrnns.profile --rnns aten jit

Caveats

Use Linux for the most accurate timing. A lot of these tests only run on CUDA.
