good morning said sun to trees: "Let's organize an operation!"
The trees clapped their branches and asked "What will we do?"
Badger smiled and replied "We will build a treehouse together!"
The trees got blocks of wood and started to build. Badger put nails in the tiny pieces of wood, while the trees put the blocks together to make a
 solid base. 
When they finished their treehouse, Goodger and the trees sat inside. Badger said, "Look how fancy we made it!"
The trees smiled and nodded. They said, "It's very fancy! Thank you for helping us organize this operation." 
Then they lived happily in their fancy treehouse together!

Performance

Optimizations

• transformer steps parallelism
• loop unrolling
• in-matrix parallelism
• (todo) SIMD
• (todo) quantization

All optimizations are Fuzz-tested against basic algorithm, which is itself tested. To disable optimizations update llama2/transformer.go import to package without optimizations and rebuild.
