RE: [VOTE] Release Apache MXNet (incubating) version 1.7.0.rc0
Hi Ziyi, Xingjian, Thanks for reporting the issues from GluonCV/AutoGluon perspective. I just did a quick try by reverting the https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/18358, then the behavior is same as 1.6.0 with the cases in the gist (https://gist.github.com/sxjscience/944066c82e566f1b89b01fa226678890). Considering there's many end-users using Gluon based API/models, and introducing a new patch to fix this issue could be risky, so I agree that reverting this PR (#18358) might be the best option for the 1.7.0 release. But I'm considering is there any other test cases to cover this feature, which could be helpful to track this kind of code changes in future, or can you help to verify if this revert do resolve the broken issue at your side? > Thus, the real issue is: Should we supporting pickling a Gluon Block? If not, > should we support combining multiprocessing.pool with the Gluon Block? Seems it's more like a new feature for MXNet Gluon Block, probably we can make it available in the next patch/minor release? Thanks, -Ciyong -Original Message- From: Xingjian SHI Sent: Saturday, July 11, 2020 4:27 AM To: dev@mxnet.incubator.apache.org; d...@mxnet.apache.org Subject: Re: [VOTE] Release Apache MXNet (incubating) version 1.7.0.rc0 Thanks Ziyi, I've discovered the same issue when I'm trying to use AutoGluon with 1.7.0rc0 and would like to share my finding: Basically, I don't think Gluon Block is designed to be pickleble. But pickling do work for some cases in the old version: I've included two cases in the gist (https://gist.github.com/sxjscience/944066c82e566f1b89b01fa226678890). - Case1: we construct a gluon block, hybridize it and feed one NDArray to help initialize the block. After that, it will no longer be pickleble. - Case2: we just construct a gluon block and it will be pickleble in 1.6.0, but won't be pickleble in 1.7.0. Thus, the real issue is: Should we supporting pickling a Gluon Block? If not, should we support combining multiprocessing.pool with the Gluon Block? For reference, PyTorch supports pickling the nn.Module as shown in: https://gist.github.com/sxjscience/90b812a66d445e759c55eedc3ef93668 and also in the doc (https://pytorch.org/tutorials/beginner/saving_loading_models.html).

The PR that causes the failure is https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/18358, which modifies basic blocks of Gluon to fix a memory leak issue. Talked with Leonard, the author of the PR, and he said he found the root cause, but patching that PR would modifies those Gluon basic blocks further, which might be risky towards existing models and various customer models. So my 2-cents is reverting this PR in 1.7, and try patching the PR in 1.x and 2.0, meaning that the 1.7 won't have memory usage optimized by that feature. I'd like to hear what you think about this issue.
