Recent deep learning workloads exhibit dynamic characteristics, leading to the rising adoption of dynamic shape compilers. These compilers can generate efficient kernels for dynamic shape graphs characterized by a fixed graph topology and uncertain tensor shapes. However, memory optimization, although particularly crucial in this large model era, remains relatively underexplored for dynamic shape graphs. The fundamental challenge lies in the lack of precise tensor shapes which are essential in conventional methods such as operation scheduling(op scheduling) and rematerialization. To address this challenge, we propose op scheduling and rematerialization approaches based on symbolic shapes and developed BladeDISC++. Besides, since rematerialization decisions cannot be made solely at compile time when tensor shapes are unknown, BladeDISC++ employs a compilation-runtime combined strategy to optimally address shape dynamics. Evaluations indicate that BladeDISC++ effectively reduces memory usage for dynamic shape graphs, achieving memory consumption comparable to optimizations using precise shapes, thereby promoting the broader adoption of dynamic shape compilers.
