PyTorch Memory Profiling in Production: A Guide to Efficiency

Out-of-memory errors in production are more than a technical hurdle; they represent a direct failure in system reliability and cost efficiency. Effective memory profiling requires a shift from local debugging to continuous, low-overhead monitoring that identifies leaks and fragmentation before they crash your sovereign GPU cluster.
