fwiw - i'm starting to wonder if there's a difference between me "resetting the task" vs cloning it.
sometimes I get "lucky" and see something more like what I expect... total experiment time < 1 min (and I have evidence of this happening. logs start-to-finish in sub-minute). But then other times the same task will take 5-10 minutes.
same worker, same queue, just one worker serving it... I am so utterly perplexed by the variation in how long things take. my clearml API server is running on a beefy 32 core machine and not much else is happening right now...
yeah, still noticing that it can be multiple minutes before something starts...
like... what is happening in this time (besides a git clone), now that I set both
export CLEARML_AGENT_SKIP_PYTHON_ENV_INSTALL=true
export CLEARML_AGENT_SKIP_PIP_VENV_INSTALL=$(which python)
update: it's now been six mins and the task still isn't done. this should have run through in like a minute total end-to-end
I'm just working on speeding up the time from "queue experiment" to "my code actually runs remotely" - as of yesterday things would sit for many minutes at a time. trying to see if venv is the culprit .
Hi Guys, just curious here, what's was the final issue?
Also out of curiosity, what does that mean? "1.12.2 because some bug that make fastai lag 2x" ?
ha! yup. that was it exactly. I posted about it too None lol
i was having a ton of git clone issues - disabled caching entirely... wonder if that may help too.
tysm for your help! will report back soon.
1.12.2 because some bug that make fastai lag 2x
1.8.1rc2 because it fix an annoying git clone bug
are you on clearml agent 1.8.0?
(im noticing sometimes im just missing logs such as "Running task id.." entirely)
okay that's a similar setup to mine... that's interesting.
much more in line with my expectation.
in my case using self-hosted and agent inside a docker container:
47:45 : taks foo pulled
[ git clone, pip install, check that all requirements satisfied, and nothing is downloaded]
48:16 : start training
i just need to understand what I should be expecting. I thought from putting it into queue in UI to "running my code remotely" (esp with packages preloaded) should be fairly fast turnaround - certainly not three minutes... i'll have to change my whole pipeline design if this is the case)
oh yes. Using env until the next message is 2 minutes.
apologies - just trying to keep sensitive data out of screenshot
So "Using env ..." take minutes without any output ?
the timestamps were all that mattered in those.
hard to see with your croppout here an there ...
minute of silence between first two msgs and then two more mins until a flood of logs. Basically 3 mins total before this task (which does almost nothing - just using it for testing) starts.
normally when new package need to be install, it shows up in the Console tab
you should be able to see int the Console tab that show what is happening
ah I see. thank you very much!
trying export CLEARML_AGENT_SKIP_PIP_VENV_INSTALL=$(which python)
but I still see Environment setup completed successfully
(it is printed after Running task id )
it still takes a full 3 minutes between task pulled by worker until Running task id
is this normal? What is happening in these few minutes (besides a git pull / switch)?
Please refer to here None
The doc need to be a bit clearer: one require a path and not just true/false
