In order to reproduce the benchmark test results, follow these steps:

1. Checkout the latest paddle lite mobile code.

2. Go to paddle lite source directory and build docker image

cd <paddle-lite-repo>
docker build --file paddle/fluid/lite/tools/Dockerfile.mobile --tag paddle-lite-mobile:latest .

3. Start the docker container. This will start the newly created docker image, and mount the paddle lite source directory to /paddle-lite path.

docker run -it --name <your_container_name> --net=host --privileged -v $(pwd):/paddle-lite paddle-lite-mobile bash

4. Paddle lite makes use of cmake to build benchmark program. In docker shell, go to paddle lite source directory and create a build directory.

cd /paddle-lite && mkdir build.armv8 && cd build.armv8

5. Run cmake command:

this will create the make file for armv8

cmake .. \
    -DWITH_GPU=OFF \
    -DWITH_LITE=ON \
    -DLITE_WITH_CUDA=OFF \
    -DLITE_WITH_X86=OFF \
    -DLITE_WITH_ARM=ON \
    -DLITE_WITH_LIGHT_WEIGHT_FRAMEWORK=ON \
    -DWITH_TESTING=ON \
    -DWITH_MKL=OFF \
-DARM_TARGET_OS="android" -DARM_TARGET_ARCH_ABI="arm64-v8a"

6. Run make command:

make -j 4

7. The built benchmark binary is <paddle-lite-mobile-source-root>/build.armv8/paddle/fluid/lite/api/test_model_bin. Use android adb to push the binary into your android phone. After connecting your phone to your computer, please execute the following command outside docker shell in paddle lite source directory:

adb push ./build.armv8/paddle/fluid/lite/api/test_model_bin /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod +x /data/local/tmp/test_model_bin

8. Now push a test model into your phone. Contemporarily we support 4 models:

model name	model
mobilenet v1	http://paddle-inference-dist.bj.bcebos.com/mobilenet_v1.tar.gz
mobilenet v2	http://paddle-inference-dist.bj.bcebos.com/mobilenet_v2_relu.tar.gz
inception v4	http://paddle-inference-dist.bj.bcebos.com/inception_v4.tar.gz
resnet50	http://paddle-inference-dist.bj.bcebos.com/resnet50.tar.gz

download the models you need. Here I take mobilenet v1 for an example, please extract and push it into your phone.

tar xzvf mobilenet_v1.tar.gz
adb push mobilenet_v1 /data/local/tmp/mobilenet_v1

9. Start the benchmark program

adb shell /data/local/tmp/test_model_bin /data/local/tmp/mobilenet_v1 50 1
