+Please refer this [blog](https://dev-discuss.pytorch.org/t/rethinking-pytorch-fully-sharded-data-parallel-fsdp-from-first-principles/1019). This also enables to have different optimizer param groups. This should be `True` when creating optimizer object before preparing/wrapping the model with FSDP.
 
 `CPU RAM Efficient Model loading`: If True, only the first process loads the pretrained model checkoint while all other processes have empty weights. Only applicable for 🤗 Transformers models. This should be set to False if you experience errors when loading the pretrained 🤗 Transformers model via `from_pretrained` method. When using this, `Sync Module States` needs to be True else all the processes expect the main process would have random empty weights leading to unexpected behaviour during training.
 
 `Sync Module States`: If True, each individually wrapped FSDP unit will broadcast module parameters from rank 0

 For additional and more nuanced control, you can specify other FSDP parameters via `FullyShardedDataParallelPlugin`. 
 When creating `FullyShardedDataParallelPlugin` object, pass it the parameters that weren't part of the accelerate config or if you want to override them.
