Do loading multiple functions that share model weights multiply memory use?
Hi, I have a multifunction model where the functions share the same model weights, and for latency I have multiple functions loaded at the same time. According to what Codex found this multiplies RAM usage, so if the single model weights 2GB, loading two functions that share the underlying weights still doubles RAM usage to 4GB (seems that it is something like neural wired memory). Does anyone have any knowledge relating to this?

CoreML model cache causes fake hard drive memory usage
Hi, I experiment by creating and compiling a lot of CoreML models and I have the issue that this causes a lot of disk usage, but when I try to delete everything (I search in the disk for possible CoreML cache directories) the disk space is not actually freed up. This is a picture of my disk usage according to what is shown inside of Settings>General>Storage and the Disk Utility app. I am running on macOS 15.7.5

Regression in EnumeratedShaped support in recent MacOS release
Hi, unfortunately I am not able to verify this but I remember some time ago I was able to create CoreML models that had one (or more) inputs with an enumerated shape size, and one (or more) inputs with a static shape. This was some months ago. Since then I updated my MacOS to Sequoia 15.5, and when I try to execute MLModels with this setup I get the following error libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type CoreML::MLNeuralNetworkUtilities::AsymmetricalEnumeratedShapesException: A model doesn't allow input features with enumerated flexibility to have unequal number of enumerated shapes, but input feature global_write_indices has 1 enumerated shapes and input feature input_hidden_states has 3 enumerated shapes. It may make sense (but not really though) to verify that for inputs with a flexible enumerated shape they all have the same number of possible shapes is the same, but this should not impede the possibility of also having static shape inputs with a single shape defined alongside the flexible shape inputs.

Matmul with quantized weight does not run on ANE with FP16 offset: `ane: Failed to retrieved zero_point`
Hi, the following model does not run on ANE. Inspecting with deCoreML I see the error ane: Failed to retrieved zero_point. import numpy as np import coremltools as ct from coremltools.converters.mil import Builder as mb import coremltools.converters.mil as mil B, CIN, COUT = 512, 1024, 1024 * 4 @mb.program( input_specs=[ mb.TensorSpec((B, CIN), mil.input_types.types.fp16), ], opset_version=mil.builder.AvailableTarget.iOS18 ) def prog_manual_dequant( x, ): qw = np.random.randint(0, 2 ** 4, size=(COUT, CIN), dtype=np.int8).astype(mil.mil.types.np_uint4_dtype) scale = np.random.randn(COUT, 1).astype(np.float16) offset = np.random.randn(COUT, 1).astype(np.float16) # offset = np.random.randint(0, 2 ** 4, size=(COUT, 1), dtype=np.uint8).astype(mil.mil.types.np_uint4_dtype) dqw = mb.constexpr_blockwise_shift_scale(data=qw, scale=scale, offset=offset) return mb.linear(x=x, weight=dqw) cml_qmodel = ct.convert( prog_manual_dequant, compute_units=ct.ComputeUnit.CPU_AND_NE, compute_precision=ct.precision.FLOAT16, minimum_deployment_target=ct.target.iOS18, ) Whereas if I use an offset with the same dtype as the weights (uint4 in this case), it does run on ANE Tested on coremltools 8.0b1, on macOS 15.0 beta 2/Xcode 15 beta 2, and macOS 15.0 beta 3/Xcode 15 beta 3.

CoreML Performance Report Error on Xcode Beta
