Can I install and use Faceswap on Nvidia Jetson?

Post by thinhpham »

Like the title says, I want to know if Faceswap supports single board computer like the Nvidia Jetson and if it does, whether it supports the gpu of this device.

Thank you,

Probably not, no. I believe the Jetson is more for inference than for training models

Do you mean it won’t work efficiently or not at all?

I could not say categorically one way or the other, as I don't own a Jetson and haven't researched it too much. This would suggest "yes, but it will be very slow": https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/c ... work/73521

However, I believe that the Jetson has 2GB of RAM, which is shared between system and GPU, which would be below what is realistically usable for training Faceswap.

Jetson Nano wont be feasible. It simply doesn't have much ram at 2 or 4gb depending on version.

With a TX1 or TX2 it's possible, but you'll have to either use a much older version or modify it to remove the pynvml checks. Unfortunately it wont be an easy solution to run on any Jetsons without modification and I don't recommend it.
