FastKernels: Benchmarking GPU Kernel Generation in Production
TL;DR AI
2 min readKey summary
FastKernels is a production-aligned benchmark and inference framework for GPU kernel generation.
It spans 46 representative architectures across 8 categories and is aligned with real serving stacks.
Results show top kernel agents achieve only limited or even negative speedups versus production baselines.
The work exposes a gap between benchmark wins and real-world throughput, and the limits of current kernel-generation agents.
