Colossal-AI in the Real World
ColossalChat
ColossalChat: An open-source solution for cloning ChatGPT with a complete RLHF pipeline. [code] [blog] [demo] [tutorial]
- Up to 10 times faster for RLHF PPO Stage3 Training
- Up to 7.73 times faster for single server training and 1.42 times faster for single-GPU inference
- Up to 10.3x growth in model capacity on one GPU
- A mini demo training process requires only 1.62GB of GPU memory (any consumer-grade GPU)
- Increase the capacity of the fine-tuning model by up to 3.7 times on a single GPU
- Keep at a sufficiently high running speed
AIGC
Acceleration of AIGC (AI-Generated Content) models such as Stable Diffusion v1 and Stable Diffusion v2.
- Training: Reduce Stable Diffusion memory consumption by up to 5.6x and hardware cost by up to 46x (from A100 to RTX3060).
- DreamBooth Fine-tuning: Personalize your model using just 3-5 images of the desired subject.
- Inference: Reduce inference GPU memory consumption by 2.5x.
Biomedicine
Acceleration of AlphaFold Protein Structure
- FastFold: Accelerating training and inference on GPU Clusters, faster data processing, inference sequence containing more than 10000 residues.
- FastFold with Intel: 3x inference acceleration and 39% cost reduce.
- xTrimoMultimer: accelerating structure prediction of protein monomers and multimer by 11x.
Parallel Training Demo
GPT-3
- Save 50% GPU resources and 10.7% acceleration
GPT-2
- 11x lower GPU memory consumption, and superlinear scaling efficiency with Tensor Parallelism
- 24x larger model size on the same hardware
- over 3x acceleration
BERT
- 2x faster training, or 50% longer sequence length
PaLM
- PaLM-colossalai: Scalable implementation of Google's Pathways Language Model (PaLM).
OPT
- Open Pretrained Transformer (OPT), a 175-Billion parameter AI language model released by Meta, which stimulates AI programmers to perform various downstream tasks and application deployments because of public pre-trained model weights.
- 45% speedup fine-tuning OPT at low cost in lines. [Example] [Online Serving]
Please visit our documentation and examples for more details.
ViT
- 14x larger batch size, and 5x faster training for Tensor Parallelism = 64
Recommendation System Models
- Cached Embedding, utilize software cache to train larger embedding tables with a smaller GPU memory budget.
Single GPU Training Demo
GPT-2
- 20x larger model size on the same hardware
- 120x larger model size on the same hardware (RTX 3080)
PaLM
- 34x larger model size on the same hardware
Inference (Energon-AI) Demo
- Energon-AI: 50% inference acceleration on the same hardware
- OPT Serving: Try 175-billion-parameter OPT online services
- BLOOM: Reduce hardware deployment costs of 176-billion-parameter BLOOM by more than 10 times.
Installation
Requirements:
- PyTorch >= 1.11 (PyTorch 2.x in progress)
- Python >= 3.7
- CUDA >= 11.0
- NVIDIA GPU Compute Capability >= 7.0 (V100/RTX20 and higher)
- Linux OS
If you encounter any problem with installation, you may want to raise an issue in this repository.
Install from PyPI
You can easily install Colossal-AI with the following command. By default, we do not build PyTorch extensions during installation.
pip install colossalai
Note: only Linux is supported for now.
However, if you want to build the PyTorch extensions during installation, you can set CUDA_EXT=1
.
CUDA_EXT=1 pip install colossalai
Otherwise, CUDA kernels will be built during runtime when you actually need them.
We also keep releasing the nightly version to PyPI every week. This allows you to access the unreleased features and bug fixes in the main branch. Installation can be made via
pip install colossalai-nightly
Download From Source
The version of Colossal-AI will be in line with the main branch of the repository. Feel free to raise an issue if you encounter any problems. :)
git clone https://github.com/hpcaitech/ColossalAI.git
cd ColossalAI
# install colossalai
pip install .
By default, we do not compile CUDA/C++ kernels. ColossalAI will build them during runtime. If you want to install and enable CUDA kernel fusion (compulsory installation when using fused optimizer):
CUDA_EXT=1 pip install .
For Users with CUDA 10.2, you can still build ColossalAI from source. However, you need to manually download the cub library and copy it to the corresponding directory.
# clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/hpcaitech/ColossalAI.git
cd ColossalAI
# download the cub library
wget https://github.com/NVIDIA/cub/archive/refs/tags/1.8.0.zip
unzip 1.8.0.zip
cp -r cub-1.8.0/cub/ colossalai/kernel/cuda_native/csrc/kernels/include/
# install
CUDA_EXT=1 pip install .
Use Docker
Pull from DockerHub
You can directly pull the docker image from our DockerHub page. The image is automatically uploaded upon release.
Build On Your Own
Run the following command to build a docker image from Dockerfile provided.
Building Colossal-AI from scratch requires GPU support, you need to use Nvidia Docker Runtime as the default when doing
docker build
. More details can be found here. We recommend you install Colossal-AI from our project page directly.
cd ColossalAI
docker build -t colossalai ./docker
Run the following command to start the docker container in interactive mode.
docker run -ti --gpus all --rm --ipc=host colossalai bash
