[pmap] Avoid degraded performance under the new
jax.pmap.This change prepares for the new
jax.pmapby implementing the recommended mechanism for accessing the first shard in a sharded array. A common pattern used withjax.pmapis to shard an array that is semantically replicated and grabbing the first shard is meant to "unreplicate". However, JAX does not know that a sharded array is actually replicated, so we must now explicitly grab the first shard.The change is under the
jax_pmap_shmap_mergeconfiguration flag. IfTrue, the newjax.pmapimplementation based onjax.jit(jax.shard_map)is used and requires the new explicit shard access. IfFalse, the oldjax.pmapimplementation is used and there is a special case in howx[0]works.Please see details here: https://docs.jax.dev/en/latest/migrate_pmap.html#int-array-indexing-into-sharded-arrays
