<p>The problem I encountered was:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>GPU memory is normally occupied during training, but GPU-util has always been 0 and and the usage of CPU is very high.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>It looks like I’m using the memory of the gpu, but I’m training with the cpu. What is the reason for this?</p>

username: ptrblck
cooked: <p>Could you check, if the data loading pipeline is a bottleneck and thus your GPU could be starving?<br>
Just execute the training loop with predefined random data on the GPU (don’t use your real data) and check the GPU utilization.</p>

username: fatmelon
cooked: <p>Hi, ptrblck, you’re right. The problem is at the bottleneck of loading. Fortunately, my memory is large enough, so I solved this problem by reading all the pictures directly at once.</p>
<p>Thank you for your help, as always ：）</p>

username: Jayen_B
cooked: <p>Hi ptrblck,</p>
<p>I’m encountering the same problem. Can U plz elaborate on bottleneck and the solution for it.</p>

username: ptrblck
cooked: <p>A simple test would be to use random tensor inputs instead of loading and processing the data from your SSD.<br>
You could also profile the data loading time as shown in the <a href="https://github.com/pytorch/examples/blob/edfa9f2b7694bae47fae78dd8ff6e99f2354a400/imagenet/main.py#L280">ImageNet example</a>. The timer should approach a zero loading time, if the workers are fast enough to create the next batch while the GPU is busy with the training.</p>

username: Jayen_B
cooked: <p>Thank you for responding ptrblck.</p>
<p>I’ve tried using random tensor inputs and the gpu process is utilized 100%.</p>
<p><span class="hashtag-raw">#testing</span> if gpu process is working<br>
a = torch.rand(20000,20000).cuda()<br>
end = time.time()<br>
while True:<br>
print(time.time())<br>
a += 1<br>
a -= 1<br>
end = time.time()</p>
<p>However, while profiling the data loading time, I ended up getting erratic elapsed time.</p>
<p>Results for the actual data loader:<br>

username: ptrblck
cooked: <p>Since CUDA operations are executed asynchronously, you would have to synchronize the code before starting and stopping the timer via <code>torch.cuda.synchronize()</code>.</p>
<p>If your data loading is the bottleneck, have a look at <a href="https://discuss.pytorch.org/t/how-to-prefetch-data-when-processing-with-gpu/548/19">this post</a>, which explains common pitfalls and some best practices.</p>

<p>Using toch.cuda.synchronize() has brought the values close but they are’nt close to 0.</p>
