System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

MoE expert-parallel communication overlap in Megatron Bridge to improve training throughput by overlapping communication with computation when MoE models and multiple experts are used.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enable overlap of MoE expert-parallel communication to reduce step time in MoE training.
  • Provide prerequisites and activation notes for correct operation, including dispatcher choices, precision requirements, and VPP usage when pipeline parallelism is involved.
  • Suitable for Megatron Bridge deployments using DeepEP-like backends, flex or alltoall token dispatchers, and complex MoE routing scenarios.

Quick Start

Enable the overlap by setting cfg.comm_overlap.overlap_moe_expert_parallel_comm to True and validate the change with a small, representative workload.
