Adds torch.autocast(fp16) + GradScaler around _train_advantage and
_train_strategy when run.use_amp=true and device=cuda. CPU/non-CUDA
falls back to fp32 no-op. Mitigations:
- scaler.unscale_(optimizer) before grad_clip.
- nonfinite-loss guard skips overflowing batches and counts them.
- diff.float().square() in advantage loss to avoid fp16 overflow.
- strategy mask/log_softmax kept in fp32.
New metrics: amp/grad_scale, amp/nonfinite_loss_count.
Tests: AMP CUDA smoke + CPU fallback in test_deep_cfr_trainer.py.
Bench: scripts/bench_amp_trainer.py micro-benches train phases under
synthetic replay memory. smoke.yaml result is fp32 3.22ms / AMP 3.92ms
(0.82×, regression). 100-iter A/B on default.yaml deliberately
skipped: smoke regression mirrors the 2026-05-07 torch.compile
regression dynamic (dispatch overhead > kernel benefit at this model
size) and re-confirming on the same size adds no information.
Default stays run.use_amp: false. Re-enable trigger documented in
docs/performance.md: hidden_size >= 1024 or num_layers >= 6, then run
the bench script + 100-iter A/B before flipping default.
