Reduce idle CPU from thread pools (#24652)
* reduce idle cpu from onnxruntime and opencv thread pools

ONNX Runtime's intra-op threads kept spinning for about 1 s after every run, so a CPU enrichment called once a second or more kept most cores busy. On a 16 thread machine, arcface at one call per second used 9.4 s of CPU per call with ~360 ms latency. Enrichment sessions on the CPU execution provider now set `session.intra_op.allow_spinning` to 0, which drops that to 1.9 s with no latency change. Detector sessions and GPU providers are unchanged, since disabling spinning doubled yolov9-t latency on CPU (12 to 23 ms).

The output and embeddings processes now run OpenCV single threaded, like the camera tracking process. A 4 camera birdseye redraw at 1080p drops from 13.7 to 4.0 ms of CPU, and the full frame conversion in the enrichment processors from 23 to 2.7 ms, each adding about 1 ms of wall time.

* test that only cpu enrichment sessions disable ort spinning

* patch out the neural engine in the spinning test

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras

License: MIT

Translation status

[English] | 简体中文

A complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection. Uses OpenCV and Tensorflow to perform realtime object detection locally for IP cameras.

Use of a GPU or AI accelerator is highly recommended. AI accelerators will outperform even the best CPUs with very little overhead. See Frigate's supported object detectors.

  • Tight integration with Home Assistant via a custom component
  • Designed to minimize resource use and maximize performance by only looking for objects when and where it is necessary
  • Leverages multiprocessing heavily with an emphasis on realtime over processing every frame
  • Uses a very low overhead motion detection to determine where to run object detection
  • Object detection with TensorFlow runs in separate processes for maximum FPS
  • Communicates over MQTT for easy integration into other systems
  • Records video with retention settings based on detected objects
  • 24/7 recording
  • Re-streaming via RTSP to reduce the number of connections to your camera
  • WebRTC & MSE support for low-latency live view
