Hugging Face has introduced an update to its AsyncGRPOTrainer, now supporting LoRA adapters for more efficient model training and synchronization. This allows only the small LoRA adapter, rather than the full model weights, to be transferred between training and inference jobs. This new capability leverages Hugging Face Jobs and Storage Buckets, enabling training and inference to run on separate machines without direct network communication, significantly reducing training time.
