Changes
Variable which is containing model outputs during statistic collection is explicitly freed after each iteration
Reason for changes
The quantization cell was failing on my machine with 125GB of RAM in the SD v3 TorchFX notebook.
After checking that the pytorch code is not leaking by the pytorch profiler tool
I confirmed that the problem is not related to statistic collection directly. After that I forced the garbage collection by the
delstatement - and my memory didn't exceed healthy 50GB during the runtime, and SQ was successfully applied to the model (in contrast with previous runs)Related tickets
Tests
I'm not sure which test should I do with that
