Loading checkpoint shards takes too long

[irjawais]

When I load "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct" model like this

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, TextStreamer from intel_extension_for_transformers.transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM model_name = "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct" # Hugging Face model_id or local model tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True) streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer) model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, load_in_4bit=True)

it got hanged. Then only way is to restart instance to recover it.

Is there any issue in my spec?

my instance spec ubunu 32 GB RAM.

@irjawais
Can you check the memory usage when converting the model? From your description, it seems that there may be insufficient memory.
