Hi @kailashg26 - did you download the model to the location specified at the top of the config?

tune download meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct --output-dir /tmp/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct --ignore-patterns "original/consolidated.00.pth"

The Llama models are "gated". This simply means you need to fill out some information in order to download the model. This can all be done from the model card page on the Hugging Face Hub: https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct.

After you do this, you should see a tag like below that says you've been granted access to the model. The whole process should take less than 10 minutes.

After this, try the above command again. Should work!

[kailashg26]

Hi @joecummings I did see that I have been granted access. I had to change some permissions and it worked now. Thanks!
Btw, how long does it take to fine-tune with alpaca dataset with llama 3.1? Also, is there any way that I could monitor the model level and system level events like memory, energy, memory bandwidth?

• Throughput (tokens per second)
  

• Latency (total response time (TRT)):  the number of seconds it takes to output 100 tokens
  

• Latency (time to first chunk (TTFC))?

@kailashg26 training time will depend on a bunch of things, including whether you're running full/LoRA/QLoRA finetune, whether you have activation checkpointing enabled, whether you're performing sample packing, bsz, seq len, how many (and what kind of devices) you're running on, and more. I recently ran some tests and was able to run an epoch of QLoRA training on an A100 (with Llama3, not 3.1, but should be similar) in as fast as 36 minutes (but again, depends on all of the above). You can check out slides 23-29 of this presentation for more details on this. As a starting point, I'd recommend setting compile=True and dataset.packed=True if you want to reduce your training time. For packed dataset you also need to set tokenizer.max_seq_len. This may require some experimentation depending on how much memory you have, you can try e.g. 2048 as a starting point though.

For monitoring system-level metrics, we log tokens/second by default (see here) and will also log peak memory stats if you set log_peak_memory_stats=True. We support different logging backends like WandB, Tensorboard, Comet logger if you use any of those. If you also want to log time-to-first-batch or other custom metrics we don't currently support, I'd recommend copying the recipe, then modifying your local version (happy to provide pointers on where/how any particular metrics should be logged).

[kailashg26]

Thanks @ebsmothers
I'll take a look at that. Thanks for the pointers. I'll try them and get back if I have questions.

[kailashg26]

Hi @ebsmothers ,

I successfully executed this command:
tune run lora_finetune_single_device --config llama3_1/8B_lora_single_device

I'm wondering how do I infer the output? Any suggestions or any documentation that will walk me through?
Additionally, I would also like to understand how the workload is balanced on single CPU-GPU system. Like which portion of code is CPU or GPU-bound. It would be great if you can provide me with the appropriate documentation for this :)

Thanks and appreciate the help!

[ebsmothers]

@kailashg26 that depends on what you are trying to do. If the full training loop completed there should be a checkpoint saved on your local filesystem. You can evaluate the quality of your fine-tuned model by using it to generate some text or by evaluating on a common benchmark (e.g. using our integration with EleutherAI's eval harness). You can check out our Llama3 tutorial here, which has sections on both of these (everything in there should be equally applicable to Llama 3.1).

Regarding determining whether code is CPU- or GPU-bound, you can use our integration with the PyTorch profiler. Just set profiler.enabled=True in your config. This will output a trace file that you can then view in e.g. Perfetto. The full set of profiler configurations we support can be seen for example here.

[kailashg26]

Hi @ebsmothers,

Thanks for your response. I’m trying to understand the interaction between hardware parameters and workload characteristics. This is my first step toward learning and fine-tuning LLMs. I’m currently focusing on parameters that could help me study the trade-offs between training time, power consumption, energy, and cache metrics (including misses) from a systems perspective.

From an algorithmic perspective, I’m working on a resource-constrained device (a single Nvidia 4090 GPU) and am interested in observing trade-offs between these metrics. I was thinking about varying parameters like batch size and sequence length, but I’m not entirely sure how these affect the underlying hardware. Any insights or documentation on these metrics would be really helpful!

I’m also experimenting with data types, using bf16, but I assume switching to fp32 would result in running out of memory when training a Llama 3.1 8B model. I’m also considering different training approaches (full, LoRA, and QLoRA) and how they impact performance and resource utilization.

Since I’m just getting started, are there any other knobs or parameters you’d recommend studying to better understand LLMs from a systems perspective?

Also, could you please help me to find the below two metrics:

1. Throughput (tokens per second)
2. Latency (total response time (TRT)): in this case, the number of seconds it takes to output 100 tokens

Thanks in advance.
