-#### Using 🤗 Better Transformer
+#### Using CPU offload
+
+As mentioned above, Bark is made up of 4 sub-models, which are called up sequentially during audio generation. In other words, while one sub-model is in use, the other sub-models are idle.
+
+If you're using a CUDA device, a simple solution to benefit from an 80% reduction in memory footprint is to offload the submodels from GPU to CPU when they're idle. This operation is called *CPU offloading*. You can use it with one line of code as follows:
+
+```python
+model.enable_cpu_offload()
+```
+
+Note that 🤗 Accelerate must be installed before using this feature. [Here's how to install it.](https://huggingface.co/docs/accelerate/basic_tutorials/install)
+
+#### Using Better Transformer
 
 Better Transformer is an 🤗 Optimum feature that performs kernel fusion under the hood. You can gain 20% to 30% in speed with zero performance degradation. It only requires one line of code to export the model to 🤗 Better Transformer:

+##### Installation 
 
-```python
+First, check whether your hardware is compatible with Flash Attention 2. The latest list of compatible hardware can be found in the [official documentation](https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention#installation-and-features). If your hardware is not compatible with Flash Attention 2, you can still benefit from attention kernel optimisations through Better Transformer support covered [above](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/bark#using-better-transformer).
-model.enable_cpu_offload()
+
+Next, [install](https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention#installation-and-features) the latest version of Flash Attention 2:
+
+```bash
+pip install -U flash-attn --no-build-isolation
 ```

+
+##### Usage
+
+To load a model using Flash Attention 2, we can pass the `use_flash_attention_2` flag to [`.from_pretrained`](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel.from_pretrained). We'll also load the model in half-precision (e.g. `torch.float16`), since it results in almost no degradation to audio quality but significantly lower memory usage and faster inference:
+
+```python
+model = BarkModel.from_pretrained("suno/bark-small", torch_dtype=torch.float16, use_flash_attention_2=True).to(device)
+```
+
+##### Performance comparison
+
+
+The following diagram shows the latency for the native attention implementation (no optimisation) against Better Transformer and Flash Attention 2. In all cases, we generate 400 semantic tokens on a 40GB A100 GPU with PyTorch 2.1. Flash Attention 2 is also consistently faster than Better Transformer, and its performance improves even more as batch sizes increase:
+
+<div style="text-align: center">
+<img src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/ylacombe/benchmark-comparison/resolve/main/Bark%20Optimization%20Benchmark.png">
+</div>
+
+To put this into perspective, on an NVIDIA A100 and when generating 400 semantic tokens with a batch size of 16, you can get 17 times the [throughput](https://huggingface.co/blog/optimizing-bark#throughput) and still be 2 seconds faster than generating sentences one by one with the native model implementation. In other words, all the samples will be generated 17 times faster.
+
+At batch size 8, on an NVIDIA A100, Flash Attention 2 is also 10% faster than Better Transformer, and at batch size 16, 25%.
