Launching on Cuda

Closed this issue · 11 comments

Hi! After launching the program via run_1OpenCLDevice, the program generates 96k keys/second. The video card is not involved in the processes. Nvidia RTX 3050 Laptop graphics card, Cuda 12 is installed. Intel has disabled the second graphics card. Maybe additional settings are required?

Hi, can you have a look in the Windows TaskManager into GPU and open the CUDA graph? Do you see some load there? Maybe your CPU is very slow. I`m already working on a lot of improvements to use the GPU only. Greetings, Bernard

gpu cuda is not displayed for some reason

On the left side, you need to open the performance overview in the menu bar with the charts inside the task manager.

You are using too less RAM. Please also use a drop down of the GPU window (e. G. 3D or copy and select CUDA)

Sorry to waste your time. But I didn't understand anything, what should I do?

Yes, CUDA is operational. However, your RAM is insufficient to keep the LMDB fully in memory. As a result, your SSD is performing swapping operations, leading to the high load on the SSD.

How much RAM do you recommend?

It depends on the database. For the light database, I recommend 16GB. For the full database, you need a minimum of 64GB.

OK. Thanks. Have a nice day!
