Hailo-8 on RPi CM4: 75 FPS vs 126 FPS on PC/RPi5 — How to optimize?

No, I used a Raspberry Pi 4 Compute Module on a Waveshare Mini Base Board. It looks like the setup I used for the following post a while ago.

Hailo Community - How can I connect a Hailo-8 to a Raspberry Pi 4?

The HEF file I used is compiled to a single context. You can download the HEF file from the Model Zoo GitHub page:

GitHub - Hailo Model Zoo - Hailo-8 Object Detection

When you build the model it will likely be compiled to multiple contexts unless you use the Hailo Dataflow Compiler Performance Mode. This method of compilation will require significantly longer time to complete. See Hailo Dataflow Compiler User Guide:

performance_param(compiler_optimization_level=max)

You can test whether a model is compiled to single or multi-context by running the following command:

hailortcli parse-hef ssd_mobilenet_v2.hef
