  • Multi node
  • nlp / transformer / llm / rl / rnn
  • vision / classification / convnet / resnet / transformer
  • audio
• Docker Container
• Works on slurm
• Automatic batch resize
• Focussed on training
• Ease of use
• Pytorch focused
• ROCm & NVIDIA
• Independent

Getting Started

The easiest way to run milabbench is to run it with one of its docker image. It will include all of the necessary data

# Choose the image you want to use
export MILABENCH_IMAGE=ghcr.io/mila-iqia/milabench:cuda-nightly

# Pull the image we are going to run
docker pull $MILABENCH_IMAGE

# Run milabench
docker run -it --rm --ipc=host --gpus=all      \
      -v $(pwd)/results:/milabench/envs/runs   \
      $MILABENCH_IMAGE                         \
      milabench run

Details

The benchmark suite has been validated on the following configurations:

Python version	GPU	Configuration file
3.9.12 (conda)	2 node x 8xNVIDIA A100 80GB	config/standard.yaml
3.9.12 (conda)	8x NVIDIA RTX8000 48GB	config/standard.yaml
3.9.16 (conda)	2x NVIDIA K80	config/ci.yaml
3.9.16 (conda)	2x AMD MI100	config/ci.yaml
3.9.16 (conda)	4x AMD MI250	config/standard.yaml

We are working on validating it on more configurations and will update the above table as we do.
