torch.cuda.memory.reset_max_memory_cached

torch.cuda.memory.reset_max_memory_cached(device=None) [source]

Reset the starting point in tracking maximum GPU memory managed by the caching allocator for a given device.

See max_memory_cached() for details.

Parameters

device (torch.device or int, optional) – selected device. Returns statistic for the current device, given by current_device(), if device is None (default).

Warning

This function now calls reset_peak_memory_stats(), which resets /all/ peak memory stats.

Note

See Memory management for more details about GPU memory management.
