| * **act_mem_free** (or amf) is a ÚFAL-specific option, which specifies the real amount of free memory (at the time of scheduling). You can specify it when submitting a job and it will be scheduled to a machine with at least this amount of memory free. In an ideal world, where no jobs are exceeding their ''mem_free'' requirements, we would not need this options. However, in real world it is recommended to use this option with the same value as ''mem_free'' to protect your job from failing with out-of-memory error (because of naughty jobs of other users). | * **act_mem_free** (or amf) is a ÚFAL-specific option, which specifies the real amount of free memory (at the time of scheduling).

However, in real world it is recommended to use this option with the same value as ''mem_free'' to protect your job from failing with out-of-memory error (because of naughty jobs of other users). |
| * **h_vmem** is equivalent to setting ''ulimit -v'', i.e. it is a hard limit on the size of virtual memory (see RLIMIT_AS in ''man setrlimit''). If your job exceeds this limit, memory allocation fails (i.e., malloc or mmap will return NULL), and your job will probably crash on SIGSEGV. TODO: according to ''man queue_conf'', the job is killed with SIGKILL, not with SIGSEGV. Note that ''h_vmem'' specifies the maximal size of **allocated_memory, not used_memory**, in other words it is the VIRT column in ''top'', not the RES column. SGE does not use this parameter in any other way. Notably, job scheduling is not affected by this parameter and therefore there is no guarantee that there will be this amount of memory on the chosen machine. The problem is that some programs (e.g. Java with the default setting) allocate much more (virtual) memory than they actually use in the end. If we want to be ultra conservative, we should set ''h_vmem'' to the same value as ''mem_free''. If we want to be only moderately conservative, we should specify something like h_vmem=1.5*mem_free, because some jobs will not use the whole mem_free requested, but still our job will be killed if it allocated much more than declared. The default effectively means that your job has no limits. | * **h_vmem** is equivalent to setting ''ulimit -v'', i.e. it is a hard limit on the size of virtual memory (see RLIMIT_AS in ''man setrlimit'').

| | * For GPU jobs, it is usually better to use **h_data** instead of **h_vmem**. CUDA driver allocates a lot of "unused" virtual memory (tens of GB per card), which is counted in ''h_vmem'', but not in ''h_data''. All usual allocations (''malloc'', ''new'', Python allocations) seem to be included in ''h_data''. |
| * It is recommended to **profile your task first** (see [[#profiling]] below), so you can estimate reasonable memory requirements before submitting many jobs with the same task (varying in parameters which do not affect memory consumption). So for the first time, declare mem_free with much more memory than expected and ssh to a given machine and check ''htop'' (sum all processes of your job) or (if the job is done quickly) check the epilog. When running other jobs of this type, set ''mem_free'' (and ''act_mem_free'' and ''h_vmem'') so you are not wasting resources, but still have some reserve. | * It is recommended to **profile your task first** (see [[#profiling]] below), so you can estimate reasonable memory requirements before submitting many jobs with the same task (varying in parameters which do not affect memory consumption).

| * **s_vmem** is similar to ''h_vmem'', but instead of SIGSEGV/SIGKILL, the job is sent a SIGXCPU signal which can be caught by the job and exit gracefully before it is killed. So if you need it, set ''s_vmem'' to a lower value than ''h_vmem'' and implement SIGXCPU handling and cleanup. | * **s_vmem** is similar to ''h_vmem'', but instead of SIGSEGV/SIGKILL, the job is sent a SIGXCPU signal which can be caught by the job and exit gracefully before it is killed.

| Define a priority of your job as a number between -1024 and 0. Only SGE admins may use a number higher than 0. In January 2018, we changed the default to -100 (it used to be 0). SGE uses the priority to decide when to start which pending job in the queue (it computes a real number called ''prior'', which is reported in ''qstat'', which grows as the job is waiting in the queue). Note that once a job is started, you cannot "unschedule" it, so from that moment on, it is irrelevant what was its priority. You can ask for a higher priority (-99...0) if your job is urgent and/or will finish soon and you want to skip your colleagues' jobs in the queue. You should ask for lower priority (-1024..-101) if you submit many jobs at once or if the jobs are not urgent. | Define a priority of your job as a number between -1024 and 0.
