Hi All,

I have python deep learning program that stuck for long without showing the output when I increase the training data size. It show that it is running the kernel without returning the output and the problem cause by the memory usage by Jupyter notebook. Please, would you mind I am wondering how can I increase the memory of the Jupyter notebook.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Osman

Hi Osman,

Jupyter itself doesn't place any limits on the amount of memory available. You're either running into the limitations of the hardware, an operating system limit an administrator has imposed, or if you've installed a 32-bit version of Python, you might be limited to ~4GB of memory in one process. You can check the latter like this:

import sys
if sys.maxsize > 2**32:
    print('64-bit')
else:
    print('32-bit')
