T4 models now have more RAM

Posted

Until recently, models running on T4 GPUs would get 4 CPUs, 8 GB of RAM and 16 GB of GPU RAM. We got feedback from model authors that this caused issues with loading more than 8GB of weights into the GPU - it’s possible, but it requires writing more intricate code to stream weights from disk to GPU RAM without loading the whole weights into main RAM at once.

Starting today, T4 models can now use up to 16 GB of RAM. This should make it easier to make use of all of the GPU RAM on T4 GPUs. There is no pricing change for this upgrade.
