Description

I wonder the benfit brought by V-shape. Assuming the batch size and the number of PP stages are the same, DualPipeV requires either twice the devices, twice the micro-batch size, or twice the micro-batch number. The latter two options take twice the time, while the first approach appears to be the same as the original one?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by tracing the DualPipeV algorithm described by the repository and compare its communication/computation overlap with the original setup under the stated device and micro-batch constraints. Done means a clear explanation of the benefit and its assumptions.
