Enable GPU Acceleration

By default, pipelines run on CPU. You can enable GPU acceleration for a pipeline to speed it up. This is especially useful for pipelines that include components that run faster on a GPU, like custom components that use AI models.

About This Task​

When you enable GPU acceleration, the pipeline checks whether a component needs a GPU and assigns one automatically. GPUs are only used when required and are not reserved for the entire pipeline run.

If GPU acceleration is disabled and your pipeline includes components that rely on a GPU, those components run on the CPU instead. This can slow down processing and may cause timeouts, especially for larger or more complex pipelines.

Enable GPU Acceleration​

  1. Go to Pipelines and click the pipeline you want to enable GPU acceleration for. This opens the Pipeline Details page.
  2. Open the Settings tab and click the GPU Acceleration toggle to turn it on.
