"""VRAM Lab (alpha, 2026-08-18): exact low-memory execution of MiniMax-H3 blocks.
The problem, measured 2026-08-17/18 on an RTX PRO 6000 (numbers below): a full-length H3 forward materialises, per DiT block, the fused
QKV projection ``[N, 3*7168]`` and the SwiGLU pre-activation ``[N, 2*14336]``
for the whole packed sequence. At ~217k tokens (an 8 s clip de-roped at
d_max 4) those two tensors are 8.7 GiB and 15.4 GiB, and the MLP-phase peak is
~24 GiB before weights. That is what OOMs 24 GB cards on the de-rope.
What this module does instead, per block, with the SAME math:
phase 1 for each token chunk: h = mod(norm1(x_c)); qkv = qkv_proj(h);
keep K, V (RMS-normed + RoPE'd) into full-sequence buffers,
discard Q.
phase 2 for each token chunk: recompute h and qkv, keep Q only;
attention(Q_c, K, V) is exact per query row (flash / SDPA);
out_proj; gated residual written in place into x[c].
phase 3 for each token chunk: mod(norm2(x_c)) -> mlp -> gated residual.
Peak per block falls from ~N x 118 KB (MLP phase) to ~N x 39 KB (x + K + V)
plus chunk-sized transients. The projection is run twice (phase 1 and 2); at
217k tokens that is ~4% of the block's FLOPs, because attention is N^2 and
projections are N. This costs no exactness: the int8 kernel quantises
activations per row, so chunking rows is bit-identical (measured
2026-08-18 on comfy_kitchen TensorWiseINT8), and every other weight format
goes through the module's own forward, weight streaming included.
``kv_block > 0`` (experimental): phase 2 attends K/V in blocks and combines
with the flash kernel's log-sum-exp (online softmax), measured to one bf16
ulp against a single call. AS BUILT it does NOT lower memory: K and V are
still materialised in full by phase 1, and the blockwise combine adds
buffers (measured +13.0 GiB forward peak vs +11.9 plain at 216k tokens,
~7% slower). A real "turtle" needs K/V staged in host RAM and streamed per
block; until then leave it at 0.
Composition: MLP chunking here is optional (``mlp_chunk = 0`` leaves the
model's own ``mlp.forward`` alone, so KJNodes' MiniMax H3 Chunk FeedForward
keeps working). Attention goes through ``optimized_attention`` so Sol-Attn
style overrides still apply; head-group chunking from KJNodes' Low VRAM
Attention is read from ``transformer_options["minimax_head_chunks"]``.
Not a quality dial. If it changes the picture, it is a bug; the gate is a
same-seed difference clip against the stock block.

rotated, so the output needs no un-rotation.
Design notes (reports/overnight_2026-08-20/sage3.md s.4/s.6):
- ``per_block_mean`` MUST be False: at H3 lengths the True form's delta_s is
[B,H,ceil(L/128),KL] fp32 ~= 82 TB. With per_block_mean False, dropping
the Q-centering and delta_s entirely is not worse than computing them
(0.27104 vs 0.27167 rel-rms), so the store keeps ONLY the fp4 tensors:
no bf16 K, no delta_s, un-centred Q, and a zeros delta_s allocated once.
- ``preprocess_qkv`` is never used: it mutates the caller's k in place and
recomputes the K mean every call. The per-head K mean is computed once
over the full K and frozen (subtracting a constant from every key is
softmax-invariant per query row, so it needs no correction term).
- The kernel's softmax_scale is derived from the PACKED last dim
((D/2)*2)**-0.5; correct at D=128, a trap if anything reshapes.
- The LSE the kernel returns is uninitialised memory (the epilogue store is
commented out upstream), so a K-blocked online-softmax combine is
impossible -- the store is one contiguous span and Q chunking alone
carries the memory win. That is why phase 1 buffers K/V in bf16 and
quantises once at finalize(): during that finalize the block holds both
(bf16 + fp4) before the bf16 is dropped.
NOT bit-equal to stock: approximation tier, one rung below kvi8s (measured

Halves the K/V bytes. NOT bit-equal to stock: a same-seed render is a sibling take (first cut 2026-08-18: operator judged the de-rope side by side 'almost perfect'). Second cut (2026-08-18 evening): standalone at 217k tokens the attention costs +16% over the exact path (first cut +24%) with a ~1 GiB transient (first cut ~3), so the K/V saving now shows in the forward peak; the live numbers are in LOWVRAM.md. kvi8s = the same K/V bytes kept in SageAttention's kernel layout (int8 K per 64-token block, fp8 V per channel, Q/K Hadamard-rotated first) and attended on int8/fp8 tensor cores straight from the store, no dequant: standalone ~1.6x faster attention than the exact path at 217k tokens, one rung more approximate than kvi8r; needs the sageattention package (2.x). kvfp4s = the same idea one precision rung further down, on SageAttention3's Blackwell fp4 kernels: K/V kept as NVFP4 (E2M1 + one e4m3 scale per 16 elements = 0.5625 byte/elem, 0.28x bf16 -- 1.63 GiB vs 5.79 at 216k tokens), Q/K Hadamard-rotated, no delta_s and no Q-centering (measured to cost nothing at per_block_mean False, which is the only affordable setting at H3 lengths). Standalone at 217k tokens: ~2.4x faster attention than the exact path and ~1.4x faster than kvi8s, at rel-rms 0.293 vs Sage 2.2's 0.055 on the outlier proxy (0.192 vs 0.039 plain gaussian) -- clearly the most approximate rung, gated on the operator's eyes. Because the fp4 kernel's log-sum-exp is not retrievable there is no K-blocked combine: phase 1 buffers K/V in bf16 and quantises once, so the block's peak during that one finalize is bf16 + fp4 before the bf16 is dropped.
