Hello,
We are testing the pipeline mode for neuron/inferentia, but can not get a model running for multi-core. The single core compiled model loads fine and is able to run inference on inferentia without issue. However, after compiling a model for multi-core using compiler-args=['--neuroncore-pipeline-cores', '4'] (which takes ~16hrs on a r6a.16xl) the model errors out while loading into memory on the inferentia box. Here's the error message:

Any help would be appreciated.

This is being ran on an inf1.2xl box currently, just in a one-off dev config with the DL AMI. I have not changed the env vars, based on the documentation it would seem like by default all cores would be assigned to the process. For a 4-core inf1.2xl box, what values would make sense for visible_cores and num_cores with a 100% utilization target?
After testing with different values, changing visible_cores to 0-3 and num_cores to 4 (and everything in between) did not make any difference - the same error still occurs.
Would you be able to share more details on the model you are attempting to compile? It is very unusual to see a 16 hour compilation time which may indicate that there are other issues occurring here even before executing the model.
Could you potentially share which model is being used or a proxy model that has similar behavior?
If this is a fully custom/private model, it could be helpful for us to look at a version of the model with the weights set to zero just to see if there are improvements we could make to the compilation process. If you can email steps/files/instructions for reproduction directly to aws-neuron-support@amazon.com then we can take a look.
After some T&E we came to the conclusion that neuron doesn't like to compile/run CV models at higher resolutions. We ended up tiling our inputs which appears to be working much better.
