Description

@ytsssun

#639 added new test cases for multi-node:

  • all_gather
  • alltoall

When running the NCCL tests on two P4 instances, it failed with OOM:

        [1,6]<stdout>:multi-node-alltoall-perf-worker-0: Test NCCL failure alltoall.cu:62 'unhandled cuda error (run with NCCL_DEBUG=INFO for details) / '

all_gather succeeded. The issue is that all-to-all is a more memory intensive case and the test parameters are too aggressive for running this test case on P4 instances.
