Fine-tuning has been widely used to adapt large language models (LLMs) for domain-specific tasks. Parameter efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods such as low-rank adaptation (LoRA) are frequently used to reduce computational costs. PortLLM is a training-free and data-free scheme used to adapt LLMs after continual pretraining. Although the initial PortLLM results show that LoRA patches exhibit short-term temporal portability, the long-term performance of PortLLM across several updates of continual pretraining remains underexplored. Furthermore, the intriguing effectiveness of PortLLM is not well
