I’m trying to find out the content within the binary logs created by keras tuner when running the Bayesian optimizer. In particular, what is in the log file checkpoint.data-00000-of-00001? This file is quite large and is filling up my memory after about 300 trials, hence causing my run to crash? I set up a chron job to delete this file from each trial directory, thus preventing my memory from being exhausted? Can I safely do this or am I fouling up the tuning process by deleting this large-ish binary?
In case anyone was interested, I discovered that the binary file “checkpoint.data-00000-of-00001” contains the model weights.
I can’t imagine that deleting the files containing the model weights would have any effect on the tuning process, but that’s just an educated guess. If anyone knows different, please advise.
