Show HN: Reconstruct distributed LLM training traceshttps://trace.vladsavinov.com
When we train large language models, there are a lot of systems challenges and different sharding schemes one can use. While there are many great resources on scaling LLMs out there ( https://huggingface.co/spaces/nanotron/ultrascale-playbook or https://jax-ml.github.io/scaling-book/ ), I felt like there was still a gap when it comes to visualising different forms of parallelism and building intuition around overlaps and execution order for a distributed training run The idea is to make it easier to visualise FSDP/Tensor Parallel/Expert Parallel/Context parallel and reason about it - you can…
