Recent low-rank training methods, such as GaLore, have significantly reduced the memory required to optimize large language models (LLMs). However, these methods often suffer from time-consuming low-rank projection estimations. In particular, the singular value decomposition (SVD) in GaLore can consume more than 80\% of the total training time. To address this issue, we propose GaLore$+$, which uses cross-head low-rank projection to reduce the substantial time consumption in estimating low-rank projections for multi-head attention. In addition, we employ randomized subspace iteration to achieve fast SVD. To further enhance performance, we propose sparsely coded residuals to reduce the errors caused by low-rank approximation on the first- and second-order moments of the optimizers and weight updates. We evaluate GaLore$+$ on arithmetic reasoning and natural language generation datasets. Our experiments demonstrate that GaLore$+$ delivers superior performance while achieving approximately $4\times$ fine-tuning speed compared to vanilla GaLore.
