Why we included this project

Most guides on training large models stay at the level of theory; this one is a working notebook from someone who actually ran the jobs. The author collected the know-how while training BLOOM-176B in 2022 and IDEFICS-80B in 2023, and the result is a stack of copy-paste commands, benchmark scripts, and troubleshooting notes rather than abstract advice. Engineers about to train or fine-tune a big model will find practical coverage of hardware choice, storage and networking, SLURM orchestration, distributed debugging, and inference setup, plus ready-to-run utilities like a network throughput benchmark and a distributed GPU connectivity test. There is even a SKILL.md file that lets an AI agent learn the same operational practices. If your team is ramping up on large-model operations, this is the kind of reference you keep open next to the docs.
