Error Code 2: OutOfMemory Error during INT8 calibration

Description

I get the “[virtualMemoryBuffer.cpp::nvinfer1::stdVirtualMemoryBufferImpl::resizePhysical::161] Erro Code 2: OutOfMemory (no further information)” error during dynamic input tensor shape int8 calibration from time to time. I monitor the GPU and RAM memory consumption and there is always free memory during the process.

The calibration process outputs this message around 40 times just before it finishes but the quantized model works well.

Do you know what the problem could be ?

Thanks!

I appreciate your reply, NVES, but I couldn’t find any online documentation or article covering the issue I described.

My int8 calibration procedure works well for all of my models but the one that causes this error to happen and I couldn’t find the culprit.

I’d appreciate if someone could at least explain what kind of problem this message refers to. Insufficient RAM, GPU VRAM… ?

Thanks!

Hi,

This happens during tactic selection, It’s more related to GPU Memory, so as long as your network generates and works properly, then there is nothing to worry about. You may try to increase the workspace.

Thanks.
