v0.6.1

Smaller patch release with some nice improvements and two new contributors 🙌

Highlights

• Tokenizer no longer requires a HubApi request to succeed if the files are already downloaded
  • This was a big request from the community and should enable offline transcription as long as everything is downloaded already
  • Also made the function public so you can bundle the tokenizer with the app along with the model files
• @smpanaro found a really nice speedup across the board by using IOSurface backed MLMultiArrays
  • Especially noticeable on older devices
• General cleanup, including a nice bug fix from @couche1 when streaming via the CLI

What's Changed

• Memory and Latency Regression Tests by @Abhinay1997 in #99
  • @Abhinay1997 is building out this regression test suite so we can be sure we're always shipping code that has the same or better speed, accuracy, memory, etc
• Fix audio file requirement for streaming mode by @couche1 in #121
• Use IOSurface-backed MLMultiArrays for float16 by @smpanaro in #130
• Cleanup by @ZachNagengast in #132

New Contributors

• @couche1 made their first contribution in #121
• @smpanaro made their first contribution in #130
