( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Obviously the first things that come to mind are threads and forking. I wrote a version based on forking and it works fine but it is a RAM hog b/c when you fork, every new process is a copy of the parent and the parent in my case is quite large b/c it loads an AI model that consumes about 1GB of RAM.

You might want to check whether each child process has it's own copy of that 1Gbyte of data.

Have a look at the 'SHR' column in top to see how much memory is shared.

Otherwise, if the children don't need the AI model, you could try forking them before you load the model.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
