mamba-architecture
Explains how to use Mamba selective state-space models (state-spaces/mamba package, Mamba-1 with d_state=16 and Mamba-2 with multi-head structure and d_state=128) for linear-time sequence modeling. Covers installation, the Mamba block, building a language model with MambaLMHeadModel, loading pretrained state-spaces checkpoints (130M to 2.8B) from HuggingFace, and benchmarking against Transformers. Use when implementing or loading Mamba models, processing very long sequences without a KV cache, building streaming applications, choosing between Mamba-1 and Mamba-2, or fixing install and CUDA memory problems. Requires Linux and an NVIDIA GPU. Do not use for standard Transformer models, or for RWKV, RetNet, or Hyena architectures.

# Mamba - Selective State Space Models
## Quick start
Mamba is a state-space model architecture achieving O(n) linear complexity for sequence modeling.
**Installation**:
```bash
# Install causal-conv1d (optional, for efficiency)
pip install causal-conv1d>=1.4.0
# Install Mamba
pip install mamba-ssm
# Or both together
