提出资源约束下大模型训练的统一效率框架,打通数据、内存与算力瓶颈。

Unifying Data, Memory, and Compute Efficiency in LLM training: A Survey

  • 从数据、内存、算力三方面构建协同优化视角。
  • 发现微调时显存常为关键瓶颈,需联合降低权重、优化器状态和激活值存储。
  • 建议根据预算动态调整训练停止或计算分配,提升整体效率。

资源限制日益决定大语言模型(LLMs)可训练、微调与部署的能力,但效率研究多局限于孤立技术,而非相互作用的系统性制约。本文采用约束中心视角,围绕三个耦合瓶颈组织近年进展:数据效率(训练数据选择)、内存效率(模型如何装入)与算力预算意识(何时何地使用浮点运算)。在数据层面,综述了基于学习动态的可扩展代理信号、梯度与影响得分、难度感知及课程学习策略,揭示不同场景下最优数据集各异,取决于任务目标与资源预算,非通用。系统层面指出,微调中显存常为首要瓶颈,有效扩展需同步减少权重、优化器状态与激活内存,而非单独优化任一组件。此外,将训练与推理视为受算力约束的过程,强调优化、数据选择与解码必须考虑有限的浮点预算。回顾证据表明,存在算力最优分配与停止规则:当边际性能增益低于预算相关阈值时应终止或重分配计算。这些成果统一了算力感知的数据选择、缩放定律与自适应推理,建立资源条件下的决策准则。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Resource constraints increasingly determine what can be trained, fine-tuned, and deployed in large language models (LLMs), yet efficiency is often studied through isolated techniques rather than as an interacting system of limits. This survey adopts a constraint-centric perspective and organizes recent progress around three coupled bottlenecks: data efficiency (what to train on), memory efficiency (how to fit training), and compute budget awareness (when and where to spend FLOPs). On the data axis, we review selection and pruning methods that maximize learning per token, ranging from scalable proxy signals based on learning dynamics to gradient- and influence-based scoring, as well as difficulty-aware and curriculum-style strategies. We highlight emerging evidence that different notions of good data dominate in different regimes, implying that optimal subsets depend on the task objective and resource budget rather than being universal. On the systems side, we show that GPU memory, not raw compute, is often the dominant bottleneck in fine-tuning, and that effective scaling requires jointly reducing weight storage, optimizer states, and activation memory rather than optimizing any single component in isolation. Beyond memory, we frame training and inference as compute-governed processes in which optimization, data selection, and decoding must explicitly account for finite FLOP budgets. We review evidence for compute-optimal allocation and stopping rules, where computation should be halted or reallocated once marginal performance gains fall below a budget-dependent threshold. Together, these results unify compute-aware data selection, scaling laws, and adaptive inference under a common principle of resource-conditioned decision-making.
