Sparton: Fast and Memory-Efficient Triton Kernel for Lear...

State-of-the-art Learned Sparse Retrieval (LSR) models, such as Splade, typically employ a Language Modeling (LM) head to project latent hidden states into a lexically-anchored logit matrix. This intermediate matrix is subsequently transformed into a sparse lexical representation through element-wise operations (ReLU, Log1P) and max-pooling over the sequence dimension. Despite its effectiveness, the LM head creates a massive memory bottleneck due to the sheer size of the vocabulary (V), which can range from 30,000 to over 250,000 tokens in recent models. Materializing this matrix creates a significant memory bottleneck, limiting model scaling. The resulting I/O overhead between operators further throttles throughput and runtime performance. In this paper, we propose Sparton, a fast memory-efficient Triton kernel tailored for the LM head in LSR models. Sparton utilizes a fused approach that integrates the tiled matrix multiplication, ReLU, Log1P, and max-reduction into a single GPU kernel. By performing an early online reduction directly on raw logit tiles, Sparton avoids materializing the full logit matrix in memory. Our experiments demonstrate that the Sparton kernel, in isolation, achieves up to a 4.8x speedup and an order-of-magnitude reduction in peak memory usage compared to PyTorch baselines. Integrated into Splade (|V| ~ 30k), Sparton enables a 33% larger batch size and 14% faster training with no effectiveness loss. On a multilingual backbone (|V| ~ 250k), these gains jump to a 26x larger batch size and 2.5x faster training.
