Ran out of GPU time on Colab

Hello,

While training for Anime Faces, I got disconnected from Colab because I exhausted daily limit for GPU. Is there a workaround or any suggestions?

Hello,

With colab pro you can have unlimited limit to colab gpu and tpu. If you don’t have gpu in your pc then you can upgrade to colab pro they charge 9 or 10 $ per month . If you have gpu you can run notebook in jupyter. Other method will be ,may be your college or company mail id have access to colab pro or you can use different different mail id with different browser for colab free gpu.
Only set hardware accelerator(runtime type) to gpu when it is required that way you can save gpu limit. During model training most of the time we need gpu but at the inference time you can set runtime type to None .
