<dd><p>A wrapper for sharding module parameters across data parallel workers.</p>
<p>This is inspired by <a class="reference external" href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.13336">Xu et al.</a> as well as the ZeRO Stage 3 from <a class="reference external" href="https://www.deepspeed.ai/">DeepSpeed</a>.
FullyShardedDataParallel is commonly shortened to FSDP.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">torch</span>

<p>FSDP has some constraints on freezing parameters (i.e. setting

memory usage will be higher than expected (namely, equivalent to not
freezing those parameters). This means that ideally, frozen parameters

so its forward pass will not all-gather the full parameters appropriately.
This could potentially happen when attempting to run only the encoder of a

the next forward-pass all-gather before the current forward

that the optimizer step runs on the original parameters, enabling
per-original-parameter hyperparameters. FSDP preserves the original
parameter variables and manipulates their data between unsharded

unsharded or sharded <code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FlatParameter</span></code>, respectively. With the
current algorithm, the sharded form is always 1D, losing the
original tensor structure. An original parameter may have all,
some, or none of its data present for a given rank. In the none
