[docs]class TensorPipeRpcBackendOptions(_TensorPipeRpcBackendOptionsBase): r""" The backend options for :class:`~torch.distributed.rpc.TensorPipeAgent`, derived from :class:`~torch.distributed.rpc.RpcBackendOptions`. Args: num_worker_threads (int, optional): The number of threads in the thread-pool used by :class:`~torch.distributed.rpc.TensorPipeAgent` to execute requests (default: 16). rpc_timeout (float, optional): The default timeout, in seconds, for RPC requests (default: 60 seconds). If the RPC has not completed in this timeframe, an exception indicating so will be raised. Callers can override this timeout for individual RPCs in :meth:`~torch.distributed.rpc.rpc_sync` and :meth:`~torch.distributed.rpc.rpc_async` if necessary. init_method (str, optional): The URL to initialize the distributed store used for rendezvous. It takes any value accepted for the same argument of :meth:`~torch.distributed.init_process_group` (default: ``env://``). device_maps (Dict[str, Dict]): Device placement mappings from this worker to the callee. Key is the callee worker name and value the dictionary (``Dict`` of ``int``, ``str``, or ``torch.device``) that maps this worker's devices to the callee worker's devices.
