   | LLAMA_CUDA_CUBLAS       | Boolean                |   false | Use cuBLAS instead of custom CUDA kernels for prompt processing. Faster for all quantization formats except for q4_0 and q8_0, especially for k-quants. Increases VRAM usage (700 MiB for 7b, 970 MiB for 13b, 1430 MiB for 33b). |

By default the decision is made based on compute capability (MMVQ for 6.1/Pascal/GTX 1000 or higher). Does not affect k-quants. |

Increasing this value can improve performance on fast GPUs. Power of 2 heavily recommended. Does not affect k-quants. |
