save_sharded_state.py

"""
Saves each worker's model state dict directly to a checkpoint, which enables a
fast load path for large tensor-parallel models where each worker only needs to
read its own shard rather than the entire checkpoint.

Example usage:

python save_sharded_state.py \
    --model /path/to/load \
    --quantization deepspeedfp \
    --tensor-parallel-size 8 \
    --output /path/to/save

Then, the model can be loaded with

llm = LLM(
    model="/path/to/save",
    load_format="sharded_state",
    quantization="deepspeedfp",
    tensor_parallel_size=8,
)
