ColossalAI/examples/language/bert/README.md

## Overview

This directory includes two parts: Using the Booster API finetune Huggingface Bert and AlBert models and benchmarking Bert and AlBert models with different Booster Plugin.

## Finetune
```
bash test_ci.sh
```

## Benchmark
```
bash benchmark.sh
```

Now include these metrics in benchmark: CUDA mem occupy, throughput and the number of model parameters. If you have custom metrics, you can add them to benchmark_util.

## Results
