Description

Hello!
When I run this model (using an A800 graphics card with 80GB of video memory), I found OOM errors in the level layers aggregation and de aggregation (in the encoder and decoder part). So I checked the memory usage and found that the aggregation and de aggregation steps were very memory intensive. Do you have any solutions?

Research direction

The report identifies memory-intensive aggregation and de-aggregation in the encoder and decoder, but names no files or tests. Start by reproducing the model run on an A800 and tracing memory use around those steps; done means identifying a supported way to avoid the OOM or documenting the limitation and evidence.
