Based on our latest tests, the #1065 has 20%+ speed-up for 1st token but will cause 2nd token latency regression, especially on short prompt input. We can set the block size as a ENV parameter and default to 16 to eliminate the 2nd latency regression mostly, and it also keeps most of the acceleration for 1st token.
Overall, with #1065 and this PR, we got the following performance speed-up table:
input len: 512; output len: 128; bs: 2; num_beams: 2
