Description
In deepspeed.utils.timer.py，what is the difference between the below items:
BACKWARD_MICRO_TIMER = 'bwd_microstep'
BACKWARD_GLOBAL_TIMER = 'bwd'
BACKWARD_INNER_MICRO_TIMER = 'bwd_inner_microstep'
BACKWARD_INNER_GLOBAL_TIMER = 'bwd_inner'
BACKWARD_REDUCE_MICRO_TIMER = 'bwd_allreduce_microstep'
BACKWARD_REDUCE_GLOBAL_TIMER = 'bwd_allreduce'?
Can i choose one of them when i use Flops Profiler? If can, how?
