67
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
68
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
69
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

|
74
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
75
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable

by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
|
|
80
|
+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
|
|
81

+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
|
|
82
|
+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
|
|
83
|
+
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
|
|
84
|
+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
|
|
85
|
+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
|
|
86
|
+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
|
|
87
|
+
as of the date such litigation is filed.
|

88
|
+
|
|
89
|
+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
|
|
90
|
+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
|
|
91
|
+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
|
|
92
|
+
meet the following conditions:
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
|
|
95
|
+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
|
|
98
|

|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
101
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
102
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
103
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
104
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
|
|
107
|
+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
|
|
108
|
+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
|
|
109
|
+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
|
|
110
|
+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
|
|
111
|
+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
|
|
112
|
+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
|
|
113
|
+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
|
|
114
|
+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
|
|
115
|
+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
116
|
+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
|
|
117
|
+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
|
|
118
|
+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
|
|
119
|
+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
|
|
120
|
+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
|
|
121
|
+
as modifying the License.
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
|
|
124
|
+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
|
|
125
|
+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
|
|
126
|
+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
|
|
127
|
+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
|
|
128
|
+
the conditions stated in this License.
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
|
|
131
|
+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
|
|
132
|
+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
|
|
133
|
+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
|
|
134
|
+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
|
|
135
|
+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
|
|
136
|
+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
139
|
+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
|
|
140
|
+
except as required for describing the origin of the Work and
|
|
141
|
+
reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
|
|
144
|
+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
|
|
145
|
+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
146
|
+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
|
|
147
|
+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
|
|
148
|
+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
|
|
149
|
+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
|
|
150
|
+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
|
|
151
|
+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
|
|
154
|
+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
|
|
155
|
+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
|
|
156
|
+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
|
|
157
|
+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
|
|
158
|
+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
|
|
159
|
+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
|
|
160
|
+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
161
|
+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
|
|
162
|
+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
|
|
163
|
+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
|
|
166
|
+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may accept and provide,
|
|
167
|
+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
|
|
168
|
+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
|
|
169
|
+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
|
|
170
|
+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
|
|
171
|
+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
|
|
172
|
+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
|
|
173
|
+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
|
|
174
|
+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

## The problem
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
Training large models on GPUs hits a wall: **VRAM**.
|
|
57
|
+
|
|
58
|
+
- Llama-3 8B with batch size 32 → out of memory on A100 40GB.
|
|
59
|
+
- Reduce batch size to 8 → training takes 3× longer.
|
|
60
|
+
- Try DeepSpeed ZeRO → 2 weeks of configuration, still crashes on custom layers.
|
|
61
|
+
|
|
62
|
+
**MemScale solves this.** Wrap your trainer in 2 lines, get 40–70% VRAM reduction, no code changes.
|
|
63
|
+
|
|
64
|
+
## Quick start
|
|
65
|
+
|
|
66
|
+
```bash
|
|
67
|
+
pip install memscale
|
|
68
|
+
```
|
|
69
|
+
|
|
70
|
+
```python
|
|
71
|
+
import memscale
|
|
72
|
+
from transformers import Trainer, TrainingArguments
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
trainer = Trainer(
|
|
75
|
+
model=model,
|
|
76
|
+
args=TrainingArguments(per_device_train_batch_size=32),
|
|
77
|
+
train_dataset=dataset,
|
|
78
|
+
)
|
|
79
|
+
|
|
80
|
+
# Add this one line:
|
|
81
|
+
trainer = memscale.wrap(trainer)
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
trainer.train() # 50% less VRAM, same speed
|
|
84
|
+
```
|
|
85
|
+
|
|
86
|
+
That's it. MemScale automatically:
|
|
87
|
+
1. **Profiles** your model's memory usage per layer
|
|
88
|
+
2. **Decides** which optimization technique fits each layer best
|
|
89
|
+
3. **Applies** activation checkpointing, CPU offloading, or tiling — whichever is optimal
|
|
90
|
+
4. **Reports** memory savings and throughput in real time

## How it works
|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
MemScale combines three techniques, choosing the best one per layer:
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
### 1. Activation Checkpointing
|
|
111
|
+
Don't store activations during forward pass — recompute them on backward.
|
|
112
|
+
Best for layers with high compute-to-memory ratio (small overhead, large memory savings).
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
### 2. CPU Offloading
|
|
115
|
+
Move parameters to CPU RAM when not in active use, prefetch back via PCIe.
|
|
116
|
+
Uses dedicated CUDA streams to overlap transfer with compute.
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
### 3. Activation Tiling
|
|
119
|
+
Split large activation tensors into chunks, process sequentially.
|
|
120
|
+
Best for attention layers and wide feedforward networks.
|
|
121
|
+
|
|
122
|
+
The **Decision Engine** picks the best technique for each layer based on:
|
|
123
|
+
- Memory footprint (params + activations)
|
|
124
|
+
- Compute cost (FLOPs)
|
|
125
|
+
- Available CPU RAM
|
|
126
|
+
- PCIe bandwidth
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
You don't configure this. MemScale figures it out.

### PyTorch Lightning (coming v0.2)
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
```python

143
|
+
import lightning as L
|
|
144
|

|
|
152
|
+
### Custom training loop
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
```python
|
|
155
|
+
import memscale
|
|
156
|
+
|
|
157
|
+
with memscale.optimize(model, optimizer) as ms:
|
|
158
|
+
for batch in dataloader:
|
|
159
|
+
loss = model(batch).loss
|
|
160
|

|
|
169
|
+
```python

## FAQ
|
|
197
|
+
|
|
198
|
+
**Q: Does MemScale change my training results?**
|
|
199
|
+
No. All techniques are mathematically lossless — bit-exact equivalence with baseline (within FP arithmetic tolerance of 1e-6).
|
|
200
|
+
|
|
201
|
+
**Q: How does this compare to DeepSpeed?**
|
|
202
|
+
DeepSpeed is powerful but requires extensive configuration and has steep learning curve. MemScale is plug-and-play. For most use cases, MemScale is enough. For large-scale distributed training (1000+ GPUs), use DeepSpeed.
|
|
203
|
+
|
|
204
|
+
**Q: Will this slow down my training?**
|
|
205
|
+
Typical overhead: 0–3% on throughput. Often net faster because larger batch sizes become possible (better GPU utilization).
|
|
206
|
+
|
|
207
|
+
**Q: What if my model has dynamic control flow?**
|
|
208
|
+
MemScale auto-detects and falls back to empirical profiling — works on any model that runs in PyTorch.
|
|
209
|
+
|
|
210
|
+
**Q: Can I use this with FSDP / DeepSpeed?**
|
|
211
|
+
v0.1: not recommended (potential conflicts). v0.2 will add explicit compatibility layers.
|
|
212
|
+
|
|
213
|
+

### Custom training loop
|
|
110
|
+
|
|
111
|
+
```python
|
|
112
|
+
import memscale
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
with memscale.optimize(model, optimizer) as ms:
|
|
115
|
+
for batch in dataloader:
|
|
116
|
+
loss = model(batch).loss
|
|
117
|
+
loss.backward()
|
|
118
|
+
optimizer.step()
|
|
119
|
+
optimizer.zero_grad()
|
|
120
|
+
```
|
|
121
|
+
|
|
122
|
+
### Configuration
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
Most users don't need this. Defaults work for 90% of cases.
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
```python
|
|
127
|
+
from memscale import wrap, Config, OptimizationMode
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
config = Config(
|
|
130
|
+
mode=OptimizationMode.AGGRESSIVE, # or BALANCED (default), CONSERVATIVE
|
|
131
|
+
enable_checkpointing=True,
|
|
132
|
+
enable_offloading=True,
|
|
133
|
+
enable_tiling=False,
|
|
134
|
+
max_cpu_offload_gb=64,
|
|
135
|
+
target_gpu_utilization=0.85,
|
|
136
|
+
)
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
trainer = wrap(trainer, config=config)
|
|
139
|
+
```

## FAQ
|
|
154
|
+
|
|
155
|
+
**Q: Does MemScale change my training results?**
|
|
156
|
+
No. All techniques are mathematically lossless — bit-exact equivalence with baseline (within FP arithmetic tolerance of 1e-6).
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
**Q: How does this compare to DeepSpeed?**
|
|
159
|
+
DeepSpeed is powerful but requires extensive configuration and has steep learning curve. MemScale is plug-and-play. For most use cases, MemScale is enough. For large-scale distributed training (1000+ GPUs), use DeepSpeed.
|
|
160
|
+
|
|
161
|
+
**Q: Will this slow down my training?**
|
|
162
|
+
Typical overhead: 0–3% on throughput. Often net faster because larger batch sizes become possible (better GPU utilization).
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
**Q: What if my model has dynamic control flow?**
|
|
165
|
+
MemScale auto-detects and falls back to empirical profiling — works on any model that runs in PyTorch.
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
**Q: Can I use this with FSDP / DeepSpeed?**
|
|
168
|
+
v0.1: not recommended (potential conflicts). v0.2 will add explicit compatibility layers.
