Decision brief
LlamaFactory is a Python-based tool for efficient fine-tuning of over 100 large language models and vision-language models, supporting various methods like LoRA, QLoRA, and quantization.
Good fit when
- Use LlamaFactory when you need to fine-tune a wide range of large language models and vision-language models with methods like LoRA, QLoRA, and quantization.
- LlamaFactory is ideal for users who require a unified framework for efficient fine-tuning across multiple models, as it supports over 100 different models.
Avoid when
- Avoid LlamaFactory if you are working with models not included in its supported list of over 100 models, as it may not provide the necessary fine-tuning capabilities.
- Do not use LlamaFactory if you are working in an environment where Python or specific dependencies like PyTorch and bitsandbytes cannot be installed or are not supported.
- Requirements:
- Min 4 GB RAM; Requires Docker; Hardware requirements vary based on the method and model size. For example, full fine-tuning of a 7B model requires 120GB of memory, while QLoRA with 2-bit can ; Installation is mandatory and can be done from source or via Docker. Additional dependencies like `metrics` and `deepspeed` are optional.; For Windows users, manual installation of PyTorch with CUDA support is required, and bitsandbytes must be installed for QLoRA support.
