"""Naive automatic balancing by CUDA memory usage per layer.
During training, required memory for parameters depends on which optimizer
is used. Optimizers may use buffers for each parameter to track
optimization statistics internally, such as momentum buffer in SGD.
To get more reliable size based balance, you should specify `param_scale`
with regard to your optimizer. The default `param_scale` is 2 instead of 1
due to gradient accumulation which is necessary for every optimizer.
Follow this guide to choose correct `param_scale` for typical optimizers:
========= ============= =========================================
Optimizer `param_scale` Internal State
========= ============= =========================================
SGD 2--3 (momentum_buffer)
Adam 4--5 exp_avg, exp_avg_sq, (max_exp_avg_sq)
Adadelta 4 square_avg, acc_delta
Adagrad 3 sum
RMSprop 3--5 square_avg, (momentum_buffer), (grad_avg)
========= ============= =========================================
Here's a simple example with the Adam optimizer::
balance = balance_by_size(
torch.cuda.device_count(),
model,
# Same size with mini-batch to train
torch.empty(1024, 3, 224, 224),
# Number of micro-batches to train with Pipe
chunks=8,
# 4 for Adam
param_scale=4.0,
)
pipe = Pipe(model, balance, chunks=8)
adam = Adam(pipe.parameters())
Args:
partitions (int):
intended number of partitions
module (torch.nn.Sequential):
sequential module to be partitioned
input (torch.Tensor):
example mini-batch with the same size to train
Keyword Args:
chunks (int):
number of micro-batches will be used to train (default: ``1``)
param_scale (float):
how many copies of parameters would be allocated for training. It
depends on optimizer. See the above guide. (default: ``2.0``)
device ('cuda' device):
CUDA device where each layer is profiled (default: the current CUDA
device)
Returns:
A list of number of layers in each partition. Use it for the `balance`
parameter of :class:`~torchpipe.Pipe`.
.. note::
`module` and `input` must be placed on the same CUDA device.
