Bug

Set Up

I use a Basler Camera acA1920-40uc.

It provides ~50 fps as cv2.Image via opencv. I use your sdk to post those images.

On the same device: jetson orin nano (no network latency) docker runs the inference-server-jets-5.1.1 image.

For testing I ran the same setup on my notebook(dell precision 5570 - i7-12700H) with the cpu image.

Problem

The inference takes longer than expected ~200ms (self computed ~ 5 fps). This is disappointing for 2 reasons:

Question

Is there anything I am not considering so I can improve my performance?

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

Hi there Could you please tell us which model you use?

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

Model Type: Roboflow 3.0 Instance Segmentation (Accurate)

Is that what you mean?

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

no, I mean what is the name and version of the model you use

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

You mean from my login - its not public? emerald-fbdh0/4

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

ok, I will take a look at metadata and try to reproduce problem on similar model to profile the server This will take some time, realistically can be done next week

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

Ty, In parallel you could name me a public model with some expected performance so I can see if my setup is in general as fast as expected.

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

ok, that would be even better

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

will check and send a link

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

that should be the model with similar characteristics: "yolov8s-seg-640"

I just checked the number from our benchmarks and last time we checked it was faster than you report, so I will redo test once you confirm this 5 FPS on public model and we will see

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

@PawelPeczek-Roboflow

It is still 5 FPS, i.e. 200ms/image on the the public model. I added some info.

So somehow I am stuck with 5FPS on an Orin Nano. I am glad for any ideas.

Looking forward to next week.

Cheers, Claus

I checked that the model ID is not arbitrary. So it uses your provided model:

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

ok, will verify on my end and reach you back

yeldarby commented 2 months ago

The benchmarks you're citing are for a nano-sized object detection model vs a small-sized instance segmentation model. Should be yolov8n-640.

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

@yeldarby your proposed Model yolov8n-640 runs at ~6fps on my orin nano.

@PawelPeczek-Roboflow I checked what a reduced resolution changes. 

    client = InferenceHTTPClient(
        api_url="http://localhost:9001",
        api_key=ROBOFLOW_API_KEY,
    )
   # 100 times less pixels
    img = cv2.resize(img, (0, 0), fx = 0.1, fy = 0.1)
    results = client.infer(img, model_id=ROBOFLOW_MODEL)

it doubled the frame rate to ~11fps.

I don´t know how sensible that is - just fyi.

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

just checking at my jetson now - my first guess was that camera may be providing high res frames, but let's see what my test shows

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

Ok, seems that @clausMeko is right with his results, those are benchmarks for segmentation models:

Docs are probably referring to object detection models which looks like that:

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

@PawelPeczek-Roboflow so you would recommend choosing object detection over segmentation models if it is about performance?

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

That really depends on your use case - some tasks would be possible to be performed by both types of models, some not. Additionally (for on-line video processing) - given that you process video skipping frames you are not able to process with you model, some applications will be possible even if you process 5, 10 or 15 fps but not each and every frame of the stream. It usually depends on camera POV regarding observed area (how close to the objects of interest camera is) and speed of observed objects. Happy to help if I know more details

clausMeko commented 2 months ago

@PawelPeczek-Roboflow I would like to use concurrency for inference. I.e. if a request takes ~100ms then I could do 3 requests every 33ms etc.

Do you you have a python code-snippet to do that? I saw your envVar INSTANCES=3 which probably only allows for parallel access but no speed up.

PawelPeczek-Roboflow commented 2 months ago

Sorry for late response,

I believe we do not have script to distribute requests. Cannot really find this INSTANCES env var in the codebase now
