Error when trying to restorate a picture about sd-webui-old-photo-restoration

Hmm.

What resolution was the image you tried to process?

[Shogun1978]

2259 x 3288 px (I've scanned an old picture with best possible resolution). And by asking me the right question, I might have found me issue: not enough memory to process such a large high-res picture. Am I right?

[Haoming02]

Since you have:

OutOfMemoryError: CUDA out of memory

in the logs, I'd assume so

How much System RAM do you have?

[Shogun1978]

The system memory of the VM is 4 or 8 GB, that is something I can easily set up to 64 GB. But the VRAM of the Tesla is just 8 GB. I think, this is the limitation. Unfortunately, I don't have access to a more powerful GPU yet. I will try to reduce the resolution of the picture and try again.

[Haoming02]

Yeah, you can try lowering the input resolution first.

Alternatively, you can also try editing this line

https://github.com/Haoming02/sd-webui-old-photo-restoration/blob/main/scripts/main_function.py#L25

to:

GPU_ID = -1

to run it on the CPU instead.

Great! Thank you!
