This is a follow-up to my question posted here: Memory error with larger images when running convolutional neural network using TensorFlow on AWS instance g2.2xlarge
I built a CNN model in Python using TensorFlow and run it on NVIDIA GRID K520 GPU. It runs fine with 64x64 images, but produces a memory error with 128x128 images (even when input consists of only 1 image).
The error says Ran out of memory trying to allocate 2.00GiB. 2GiB is the size of my first fully-connected layer (input: 128*128*2(channels) * output: 128*128 * 4 bytes = 2.14748 GB = 2.0 GiB).
From here, I can see that GRID K520 has 8GB = 7.45GiB memory. When I start running my code, I also see the output: Total memory: 3.94GiB, Free memory: 3.91GiB.
My question is, what is the relationship between all these numbers: if there are 7.45GiB of memory on GPU, why there are only 3.94GiB of total memory and most importantly, why GPU cannot allocate 2GiB memory, which is just above half of total memory? (I am not a computer scientist, so a detailed answer would be valuable.)
Some more specific information in case it is useful: I tried using allow_growth and per_process_gpu_memory_fraction. Still get the memory error, but also some memory stats (would really appreciate if someone could explain to me these numbers):

Minimal working example: with dummy training set of the same size as the images I input and only one fully-connected layer (full model code is here). This example works with input of size
X_train = np.random.rand(1, 64, 64, 2) Y_train = np.random.rand(1, 64, 64) but doesn't work with input of size
X_train = np.random.rand(1, 128, 128, 2) Y_train = np.random.rand(1, 128, 128) Code:
import numpy as np import tensorflow as tf # Dummy training set: X_train = np.random.rand(1, 128, 128, 2) Y_train = np.random.rand(1, 128, 128) print('X_train.shape at input = ', X_train.shape, ", Size = ", X_train.shape[0] * X_train.shape[1] * X_train.shape[2] * X_train.shape[3]) print('Y_train.shape at input = ', Y_train.shape, ", Size = ", Y_train.shape[0] * Y_train.shape[1] * Y_train.shape[2]) def create_placeholders(n_H0, n_W0): x = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, shape=[None, n_H0, n_W0, 2], name='x') y = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, shape=[None, n_H0, n_W0], name='y') return x, y def forward_propagation(x): x_temp = tf.contrib.layers.flatten(x) # size (n_im, n_H0 * n_W0 * 2) n_out = np.int(x.shape[1] * x.shape[2]) # size (n_im, n_H0 * n_W0) # FC: input size (n_im, n_H0 * n_W0 * 2), output size (n_im, n_H0 * n_W0) FC1 = tf.contrib.layers.fully_connected( x_temp, n_out, activation_fn=tf.tanh, normalizer_fn=None, normalizer_params=None, weights_initializer=tf.contrib.layers.xavier_initializer(), weights_regularizer=None, biases_initializer=None, biases_regularizer=None, reuse=True, variables_collections=None, outputs_collections=None, trainable=True, scope='fc1') # Reshape output from FC layer into array of size (n_im, n_H0, n_W0, 1): FC_M = tf.reshape(FC1, [tf.shape(x)[0], tf.shape(x)[1], tf.shape(x)[2], 1]) return FC_M def compute_cost(FC_M, Y): cost = tf.square(FC_M - Y) return cost def model(X_train, Y_train, learning_rate=0.0001, num_epochs=100): (m, n_H0, n_W0, _) = X_train.shape # Create Placeholders X, Y = create_placeholders(n_H0, n_W0) # Build the forward propagation DECONV = forward_propagation(X) # Add cost function to tf graph cost = compute_cost(DECONV, Y) # Backpropagation optimizer = tf.train.RMSPropOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(cost) # Initialize all the variables globally init = tf.global_variables_initializer() # Memory config config = tf.ConfigProto() config.gpu_options.allow_growth = True # Start the session to compute the tf graph with tf.Session(config = config) as sess: # Initialization sess.run(init) # Training loop for epoch in range(num_epochs): _, temp_cost = sess.run([optimizer, cost], feed_dict={X: X_train, Y: Y_train}) print ('EPOCH = ', epoch, 'COST = ', np.mean(temp_cost)) # Finally run the model model(X_train, Y_train, learning_rate=0.00002, num_epochs=5) Full error:

It would be good, if you can upload your code or at least a minimal example in order to see what is going on. Just looking at these numbers, it seems allow_growth is working as it should, that is, it is only allocating the amount of memory that it actually needs (the 2.148 GiB you calculated above).
Also can you provide the full console output of the error you are getting. My guess is, that you are confusing a non fatal warning message from the TF resource allocator for the actual error that's causing your program to fail.
Is this similar to the message that you are seeing? W tensorflow/core/common_runtime/bfc_allocator.cc:217] Allocator (GPU_1_bfc) ran out of memory trying to allocate 2.55GiB. The caller indicates that this is not a failure, but may mean that there could be performance gains if more memory is available.
Because this is just a warning that you may ignore unless you want to optimize the runtime performance of your code. It is not something that will cause your program to fail.

Looking the error log it looks like or you are running out of GPU memory or the tensor is not initiated at that point. You can try to insert Tensor::IsInitialized before the line that start the problem (99) to make sure it's the GPU, if it is, you may have some code still running in the GPU, from previous tries, make sure that is not happening. There is two discussions that I think may be relevant for your problem, here: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/7025 and here: https://github.com/aymericdamien/TensorFlow-Examples/issues/38 Good luck
