这是我在这里发布的问题的后续问题：Memory error with larger images when running convolutional neural network using TensorFlow on AWS instance g2.2xlarge
我使用TensorFlow在Python中构建了一个CNN模型，并在NVIDIA GRID K520 GPU上运行它。它可以在64x64图像下正常运行，但会产生128x128图像的内存错误（即使输入只包含1个图像）。
错误说Ran out of memory trying to allocate 2.00GiB. 2GiB是我第一个完全连接的层的大小（输入：128*128*2(channels)输出：128*128 * 4 bytes = 2.14748 GB = 2.0 GiB）。
从here，我可以看到GRID K520有8GB = 7.45GiB内存。当我开始运行我的代码时，我也看到了输出：Total memory: 3.94GiB, Free memory: 3.91GiB。
我的问题是，所有这些数字之间的关系是什么：如果GPU上有7.45GiB内存，为什么总内存只有3.94GiB，最重要的是，为什么GPU不能分配2GiB内存，这只占总数的一半以上记忆？ （我不是计算机科学家，所以详细的答案很有价值。）
一些更具体的信息，以防它有用：我尝试使用allow_growth和per_process_gpu_memory_fraction。仍然得到内存错误，但也有一些内存统计（如果有人可以向我解释这些数字，真的很感激）：

最小的工作示例：使用与我输入的图像大小相同的虚拟训练集，并且只有一个完全连接的层（完整的模型代码是here）。此示例适用于大小的输入：
X_train = np.random.rand(1, 64, 64, 2)
Y_train = np.random.rand(1, 64, 64)
但不适用于大小的输入
X_train = np.random.rand(1, 128, 128, 2)
Y_train = np.random.rand(1, 128, 128)

如果您可以上传您的代码或至少是一个最小的示例，以便了解正在发生的事情，那就太好了。看看这些数字，似乎allow_growth正在按原样运行，也就是说，它只分配它实际需要的内存量（上面计算的2.148 GiB）。
您也可以提供您获得的错误的完整控制台输出。我的猜测是，您正在混淆来自TF资源分配器的非致命警告消息，指出导致程序失败的实际错误。
这类似于您所看到的消息吗？
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.
因为这只是一个警告，您可以忽略，除非您想优化代码的运行时性能。它不会导致程序失败。
查看错误日志，或者您正在耗尽GPU内存，或者此时未启动张量。您可以尝试在启动问题的行之前插入Tensor :: IsInitialized（99）以确保它是GPU，如果是，您可能还有一些代码仍在GPU中运行，从以前的尝试开始，请确保不是发生。我认为有两个讨论可能与你的问题有关，这里：https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/7025和这里：https://github.com/aymericdamien/TensorFlow-Examples/issues/38祝你好运
