Issue with GPU memory allocation for pangu and graphcast

[Lucas-Hardy]

Hi

I'm trying to set up GraphCast and Pangu to run on a 3060 12GB GPU and am getting memory allocation errors for both models.

Pangu:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

I am using Cuda 12.4 in Pangu and 12.3 with GraphCast, I have tried using Cuda 11 and it does not recognise my GPU. I am using cudnn=8.9.7.29. I have also tried setting XLA_PYTHON_CLIENT_PREALLOCATE=false, setting XLA_PYTHON_CLIENT_MEM_FRACTION to smaller values and XLA_PYTHON_CLIENT_ALLOCATOR=platform. The model also runs fine on the CPU, just very slow. Is there a fix to this or it just simply that my GPU has not got enough VRAM?

Thanks.

I met the same problem in pangu on my device 4060 32G GPU today,but yestaday the model work. so weird

I tried creating a new Python environment and after pip install ai-models , l installed onnxruntime via conda, suspecting that the issue might be related to the version of numpy (the version running smoothly for me is 2.0.0).
