| 2026 | Fine-grained and Non-intrusive LLM Training Monitoring via Microsecond-level Traffic MeasurementabstractLarge language model (LLM) training is prone to anomalies due to its long duration and large scale, which can lead to significant performance degradation or even training crashes. Due to the synchronization nature of LLM training, anomalies exhibit the cascading effect, making their diagnosis challenging. Existing approaches rely on collecting communication operator information via code instrumentation, which yields only coarse-grained monitoring data and requires modifications to training code or communication libraries. We propose Pulse, a fine-grained, non-intrusive, and easy-to-deploy monitoring system. Our key idea is to enable fine-grained monitoring via traffic measurement. Pulse conducts microsecond-level RDMA traffic measurement on NICs, and transforms flow-level measurements into communication operator measurements, thereby enabling fine-grained and non-intrusive monitoring. We deploy Pulse on a testbed with 64 H200 GPUs and evaluate its anomaly localization capability under common failure scenarios. Pulse achieves machine-level localization in 10 out of 12 scenarios, while existing methods succeed in only 4 and even misdiagnose 2 of the remaining scenarios. Additionally, Pulse achieves over 90% precision and 100% recall, supports up to 2000 concurrent RDMA flow measurements per NIC, and imposes negligible overhead on training performance, making it a practical solution for real-world LLM training environments.
