…57791) NVCC apparently has a [compression-mode flag](https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-compiler-driver-nvcc/#compress-mode-default-size-speed-balance-none-compress-mode) to tell it how you want to compress the fatbinary since 12.4. This mode defaults to speed (pick a low compression mode that loads the file quickly). Since we are running into PyPi size issues, this will allow us to upload smaller wheel files. From: https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-compiler-driver-nvcc/index.html#compress-mode-default-size-speed-balance-none-compress-mode ``` size Uses a compression mode more focused on reduced binary size, at the cost of compression and decompression time. ``` Up to 37.2% reduction in binary size with virtually no drawback (except potentially a little slower loading of the .so at PyTorch startup). 694 MB for CUDA 12.9 builds with 6.0;7.0;7.5;8.0;8.6;9.0;10.0;12.0+PTX vs 1.08GB for CUDA 12.9 builds with 7.5;8.0;8.6;9.0;10.0;12.0+PTX CUDA 12.9 ***694MB*** vs ***1.08GB*** CUDA 12.8 ***604MB*** vs ***845MB*** This ends up saving PyPi.org approximately 19.6 PiB of bandwidth per month for the CUDA 12.9 case. This will also allow us to add back CUDA 12.8 12.0+PTX which will make the package forward compatible on newer GPUs.
