# Load and quantize
model = load_da3_model(compile_model=True)
model_fp16 = quantize_fp16(model)  # 2x faster

# Or export to ONNX (3-10x faster)
onnx_path = export_to_onnx(model, sample_input, Path("model.onnx"))

)
```

### For Memory-Constrained Training

```python
from ylff.utils.dynamic_batch import AdaptiveDataLoader
from ylff.utils.hdf5_dataset import create_hdf5_dataset, HDF5Dataset

# Convert to HDF5 for memory efficiency
hdf5_path = create_hdf5_dataset(samples, Path("dataset.h5"))
dataset = HDF5Dataset(hdf5_path, cache_in_memory=False)

# Use dynamic batching
dataloader = AdaptiveDataLoader(
    dataset,
    initial_batch_size=1,
    max_batch_size=4,
)

# Train with gradient checkpointing
fine_tune_da3(
    model=model,
    training_samples_info=samples,
    use_gradient_checkpointing=True,
    batch_size=1,  # Will be adjusted dynamically

## 🔧 Troubleshooting

### Torch.compile Issues

- If compilation fails, set `compile_model=False`
- Some dynamic operations may not compile
- First run is slower (compilation overhead)

### DDP Issues

- Ensure all GPUs are accessible
- Check `MASTER_ADDR` and `MASTER_PORT` environment variables
- Use `nccl` backend for GPU, `gloo` for CPU

### Quantization Issues

- FP16: Works on all modern GPUs
- INT8: May have accuracy loss, test first
- ONNX: Some operations may not export, check logs

### Memory Issues

- Use gradient checkpointing
- Use HDF5 datasets
- Reduce batch size or use dynamic batching
- Enable gradient accumulation

## 🎯 Best Practices

1. **Start Simple**: Enable basic optimizations first (AMP, multiprocessing)
2. **Profile First**: Use `TrainingProfiler` to identify bottlenecks
3. **Gradual Enable**: Add optimizations one at a time to measure impact
4. **Test Thoroughly**: Some optimizations may affect accuracy
5. **Monitor Resources**: Watch GPU utilization and memory usage

## 📈 Expected Results

With all optimizations enabled on a modern GPU:

- **Training**: 10-20x faster (single GPU) or 40-80x faster (4 GPUs)
- **Inference**: 10-50x faster (with quantization + ONNX)
- **Memory**: 50-80% reduction
- **GPU Utilization**: 95-99%
- **Convergence**: 10-30% faster (with OneCycleLR)
