Description
🐛 Describe the bug
I have been playing with configs/official-1124/OLMo-7B-stage1.yaml and training using the dataset in the YAML file. Unfortunately, I have found a strange issue. After loading from a checkpoint the variance in Cross Entropy and Z Loss has increased dramatically. For example, I ran first iteration till steps 5600 and then re ran training from a checkpoint of 4400. Here are Loss graphs from wandb:
You can see clearly that after step 4400 the variance is high.
I have tried this on following two systems and both shows the same problem.
- 64 AMD MI300X with 8 nodes using ROCM 6.1, PyTorch 2.5.1, and Python 3.11
- 64 NVIDIA A100 with 8 nodes using CUDA 12.4, PytTorch2.5.1, and Python 3.11
I have tried changing with heads and layers of OLMo-7B-stage1.yaml: 16 and 32 but both have same issues.
I have been using OLMo Core checkpointer using the following method:
- First collect tensors of all nodes in
model,train, andoptimfolder of checkpoints in a single folder accessible to all nodes. - Then set
--load_path=to the above folder containing all tensors.
Below is the config I used (I removed the dataset URLs):
