TensorFlow on Kubernetes性能瓶颈定位

当前性能问题描述

  1. 增加worker数，一定范围内能带来较好的性能提升，但是继续增加worker数时，训练性能提升不明显；
  2. 增加ps数，一定范围内能带来较好的性能提升，但是继续增加ps数时，训练性能提升不明显；

可能原因：

  1. 与ps和worker的分布情况强相关：
    • 目前的调度策略，主要根据服务器的cpu和内存使用情况进行均衡调度，尽量使得集群中每台服务器的cpu和内存使用率相当。这种情况下，ps和worker的调度存在一定程度的随机性。
    • 如果调度时，每台包含worker的服务器都有对应一个ps，那么训练性能会更高?如果有，性能提升多少呢？
  2. K8S中的worker从HDFS集群中读取训练数据时存在IO瓶颈？可能网络上的或者是HDFS本身的配置，需要通过HDFS集群的监控来进一步排查。

下面，是针对第一种“可能原因：与ps和worker的分布情况强相关“ 设计的测试场景和用例：

场景1：将每个worker所在的服务器都有对应的ps。

测试用例

用例ID 服务器数 worker数 ps数 说明
1 10 一台服务器部署了10个worker和1个ps
2 5 50 5台服务器分别部署了10个worker和1个p
3 100 10台服务器分别部署了10个worker和1个p
4 20 200 20台服务器分别部署了10个worker和1个p

TensorFlow on Kubernetes性能瓶颈定位

测试结论及思考

对比两种不同场景下用例2（5个ps，50个worker）的监控数据，发现如下现象：

  • 两种场景下，虽然创建了5个ps，但是实际上只有一个ps的负载比较高，其他的ps要么cpu usage在10%以下，要么甚至几乎为0。
  • 两种场景下同样的worker number和ps number，整个tensorflow cluster消耗的cpu和内存差别很小。

测试结论

  • 分布式tensorflow中，每个worker选择哪个ps作为自己的参数服务器跟我们如何强制分布ps和worker的布局无关，由分布式tensorflow内部自己控制（跟tf.train.replica_device_setter()设置的strategy有关）。

问题思考

  • 为什么这个训练中，多个ps中只有一个ps在工作？是算法只有一个Big参数？如果是，那么默认按照Round-Robin策略只会使用一个ps，就能解释这个问题了。这需要算法的兄弟进行确认。
  • 如果将Big参数拆分成众多Small参数，使用RR或LB或Partition策略之一，应该都能利用多个ps进行参数更新明显提升训练性能。
  • 通过这次折腾，也不是一无所获，至少发现我们对于Distributed TensorFlow的内部工作原理还不甚了解，非常有必要深入到源码进行分析。
