Given that evals take very long for large models, it would be nice to have data parallel working for vllm [see #31 #39].
My understanding is that the current codebase tries to address this with multi-processing, similarly to the vllm docs https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/examples/offline_inference/data_parallel.py.
However, this is currently broken #31 and additionally, unnecessary, since
lm_evalalready supports data parallel natively.This PR should address these issues by adding lm_eval's data parallel support to Olmes. The first four commits are from #49 .
Tested with command on 4xh100s.
