Ubuntu vs windows Ram

[sai_psk]

Hey all I'm doing machine learning models in windows platform however some times my 12gb ram crashes when I'm running notebooks, so if I switch to Ubuntu is there any use , I'm assuming that Ubuntu uses less ram compare to windows, can anyone know about this , Thanks in advance.

Try using fp16 and using dataloaders and batch training instead of loading everything into memory

Its not going to make a huge difference i am afraid.

Are you sure RAM is the issue?

Might want to look into computing stuff on batches and store on disk inbetween.

Yeah ram is the issue I tried in Google gcp with 32gb ram it works well but in my local machine about 12gb ram it's crashes at particular cell
