    Hi Vida,

    Please note that the NodefileStart parameter applies only if the out-of-memory error happens during the B&B tree. If your machine runs out of memory already before entering the B&B tree, i.e., before the root node has been solved, then a different workaround is needed.

    Please note that a model with ~140 million nonzeros is expected to require a lot of memory. How much memory does your machine have? Do you have the possibility to switch the a different machine, e.g., to a Cloud machine?

    Could you please share the full log output until the OOM error occurs?

    Best regards, 
    Jaromił

    Thank you for sharing the output.

    I cannot see that the parameter NodefileStart has been actually set. Is this output just missing in your post?

    Do you have writing permissions on this machine? You can specify a particular location for the node files via the NodefileDir parameter.

    You could try setting Method=1 to use the Dual Simplex only.

    If you are setting the NodefileStart parameter, you could set it to a lower value. It is possible that already the root node takes most of the RAM and the B&B tree actually never reaches the 0.5GB threshold set by the NodefileStart parameter.

    Best regards, 
    Jaromił

    Sorry for the inconvenience. You can see the output in the following again. 

    What do you mean by writing permission? I guess you are asking about license. I am using academic license. 

    Set parameter NodefileStart to value 0.5
    Set parameter PreSparsify to value 1
    Set parameter Threads to value 2

    What do you mean by writing permission? I guess you are asking about license. I am using academic license. 

    I mean whether you have permissions to generate and write into new files on the machine you are using. It is not correlated to your Gurobi license. If this is not your machine you are running on, then it is possible that you do have only reading permissions.

    You could try setting NodefileStart=0. This should start writing the node files as soon as the optimization reaches the B&B tree.

    Best regards, 
    Jaromił

    Dear Jaromil,

    Thank you for your help.

    I am using Jupyter Notebook on my laptop with an academic license. I tried setting NodefileStart = 0, but it did not work. I have got the same error. You can see below for more information. 

    Set parameter NodefileStart to value 0
    Set parameter PreSparsify to value 1
    Set parameter Threads to value 2

    Hi Vida,

    You could try setting Method=0 or 1 and reducing the Threads parameter to 1. If this also does not help, then I think that unfortunately the only option remaining is to switch to a machine with more memory.

    Alternatively, you could try to reduce the model size. Depending on the application, this may not be possible.

    Best regards, 
    Jaromił

    Hi Jaromil,

    Thanks for your comment and sorry for my late response. 

    I have to change my machine. Could you please guide me on choosing the best machine that suits my optimization problem? 

    Regards,

    Hi Vida,

    For you models I would recommend at least 64GB RAM. You can find more information in the Knowledge Base article How does Gurobi perform on different computer hardware?

    You could use a cloud machine. Those are usually very strong with enough RAM and you might get some discount as a student.

    Best regards,

    Hi Jaromil,

    Thank you for your response. Could you please guide me on using cloud machine service? I am using Python. Now, I am using the following CPU on another machine, but I am not sure if it will be helpful or not. 

    CPU model: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8488C, instruction set [SSE2|AVX|AVX2|AVX512]
    Thread count: 16 physical cores, 32 logical processors, using up to 32 threads

    Regards,

    Vida

    Hi Vida,

    The Knowledge Base article How do I switch to using Gurobi Instant Cloud? provides the steps to use Gurobi in an Instant Cloud. I would only recommend switching to a Cloud machine if you do not have access to a different machine with enough RAM.

    Now, I am using the following CPU on another machine, but I am not sure if it will be helpful or not. 

    The CPU looks fine. For your application it is important to have enough memory. How much RAM does the machine have? As mentioned before, 64GB should be enough for you. Anything more than that cannot hurt either.

    Best regards, 
    Jaromił
