What is "_dedup_tensors.py:44 INFO p:SpawnProcess-1 t:MainThread: Duplicate keys to remove"

Hi. I’m practicing PyTorch FSDP coding these days, and trying to make save and load snapshots for it.

I ran the example code(torch/distributed/checkpoint/examples/fsdp_checkpoint_example.py) and it works well. However, every time I ran it, an warning message is always showed as

_dedup_tensors.py:44 INFO p:SpawnProcess-1 t:MainThread: Duplicate keys to remove:

at

dist_cp.save_state_dict(
            state_dict=state_dict,
            storage_writer=dist_cp.FileSystemWriter(CHECKPOINT_DIR),
        )

What does it means and how can I fix it?
