Algorithm does not work for n=1

[LingxiaoShawn]

Hi author,

Thank you for the great work. The algorithm runs very fast!
However, I think the current algorithm does not consider the corner case with just single GPU (n=1), and in this case, the allocate function's while loop just run forever.

Is there a way to easily fix the problem?

Thank you!

I changed line the to

        if l <= n:
            break  # Can't allocate each sequence to a single machine

and it works, not sure whether this is correct.

I have fixed several bugs at https://github.com/LingxiaoShawn/multipack_sampler/blob/master/multipack_sampler.py

Hi @LingxiaoShawn thanks for reporting the issue. Could you please check if the data is empty, or too little to fill a single batch? The packer is working fine with a single GPU on our environments.
