ERROR root CUDA out of memory
I have an out of memory error during a training iteration despite :
- my V100 GPU has 32Gb of ram
- I used "with torch.cuda.amp.autocast():"
- I used torch.cuda.empty_cache(). I have no memory leak since I printed memory usage after each batch, and it was constant
- my sequence (batch of size 1) is not supposed to be the longest (ie. longer sequences didnt cause the error during training)
It says this : "ERROR root CUDA out of memory. Tried to allocate 64.00 MiB (GPU 0; 31.75 GiB total capacity; 30.22 GiB already allocated; 61.50 MiB free; 30.33 GiB reserved in total by PyTorch) If reserved memory is >> allocated memory try setting max_split_size_mb to avoid fragmentation. See documentation for Memory Management and PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF."
Isnt 1b3 supposed to fit easily in a V100 ?
Hi
@edmond
!
Thank you very much for your question. This is weird indeed, what I suspect as a first sight is that you are loading everything in fp32 (by default). The weights in the Hub are stored in fp16, they are ~3.4Gb in fp16 and would be 2x higher in fp32 I think. This can rapidly blow up the GPU ram together with the optimizer state.
Can you try to load the weights + optimizer state directly in fp16 like the following: AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("bigscience/bloom-1b3", torch_dtype="auto")
? Let me know if this works!
Would you be able to share a minimal example? I think this should work with a V100 32Gb (including the optimizer states)
Hi, thanks for the quick answer, AutoModelWithLMHead.from_pretrained("bigscience/bloom-1b3", torch_dtype="auto") leads to ERROR root Attempting to unscale FP16 gradients.
Here is a minimal example :
"""

with torch.cuda.amp.autocast():
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("bigscience/bloom-1b3")
model = AutoModelWithLMHead.from_pretrained("bigscience/bloom-1b3")
df['tokens'] = df['tokens'].map(lambda x: x + [tokenizer.eos_token_id])
scaler = torch.cuda.amp.GradScaler()

model.opt = torch.optim.NAdam(model.parameters(), lr=0.000007)

batch = batch[:, :1024]
print(batch.shape)

loss = torch.nn.functional.cross_entropy(pred, batch[0, 1:])

Anyone ?
I used Adam but it still doesnt fit, only SGD does or if I freeze many layers, is that normal ? :(
Hey! Sorry I'm currently busy on another project. I'll try your minimal script as soon as I have some bandwidth. I'll have to double check a few things:
- is 1b3 the total amount of parameters with or without vocabulary? Vocab is actually quite big in our case but I don't think it should really tip the scale on v100 32g.
- i would suggest removing
auto
as it's for larger models that require cpu offloading, but you should easily fit the weights inside a single device. - can you just load weights + optimizer and check memory footprint? I want to understand if the issue is actually loading the model or running it?
Sorry for the very late reply.
Also can you check if removing GradScaler helps?
Hi, no worries for the late, I just thought you guys forgot me, I will be a bit more patient next time ^^.
About the number of parameters I am not sure but I tried this :
I deleted auto and the model runs if I use SGD or more frozen layers by doing :
"
for name, param in model.named_parameters():
param.requires_grad = True if 'ln' in name.lower() or 'norm' in
name.lower() or 'wpe' in name.lower() or
'wte' in name.lower() or
'position_embeddings' in name.lower() or
'pos_drop' in name.lower() else False
"
Sure, about the footprint I am following https://discuss.pytorch.org/t/how-to-check-the-gpu-memory-being-used/131220?u=edmondj and running this before having the exception being raised :
Without the GradScaler its even worse, not even one backprop step succeeds, it crashes at the first one (but I think it is a bit random since when I got also rid of with torch.cuda.amp.autocast(): after that, and it crashed at the 2nd iteration).
Thanks !
