Does the marian model have a method like huggingface generate?

[wolf-li]

Using pipline is slower than using python huggingface library transformers generate function, when the model file is loaded, in using CPU envierment.

[guillaume-be]

The pipeline should not be slower than the Python equivalent on the same device. If you are using a CUDA-enabled GPU, please ensure it is used for both frameworks. The Marian model exposes a generate method via the MarianGenerator struct and the LanguageGenerator trait.

Thanks for your replay.
When the Marian model calls the pipeline using the GPU (specify the use of GPU Device::Cuda(3), observe that nvidia-smi is occupied when running rust programs), Slower than python calls to the huggingface library in docker environments without a GPU.

Hello @wolf-li ,

Do you compile the code in release mode with all optimizations?

[linkedlist771]

Each time you call the generation function, it will creat a new model (load from your disk and init) , I think it would be the cause of it.
