## 💡 **HARDWARE OPTIMIZATION GUIDE**

### Memory Requirements by Configuration

| ROI Size | Batch Size | VRAM Needed | Recommended For |
|----------|------------|-------------|-----------------|
| 96×96×96 | 1 | 8GB | Minimum viable |
| 128×128×128 | 1 | 12GB | Good baseline |
| 160×160×160 | 1 | 16GB | High quality |
| 192×192×192 | 1 | 24GB | Maximum quality |

### CPU-Only Fallback

- Use `--no-cuda` flag for CPU-only training
- Expect 10-20x slower training times
- Reduce batch size to 1, ROI to 64×64×64
- Use cache_mode="none" to reduce memory

---

## 🚨 **TROUBLESHOOTING QUICK FIXES**

### Common Issues

1. **Docker Permission Denied**: `sudo usermod -aG docker $USER` (requires logout/login)
2. **CUDA Out of Memory**: Reduce batch_size or ROI size in configs
3. **Dataset Download Fails**: Check internet connection, retry with `--sections training`
4. **VSCode Crashes**: Use crash prevention system in `scripts/training/`

### Emergency Commands

```bash
# Stop all training processes
pkill -f train_enhanced.py

# Clean up Docker
docker system prune -f

# Reset virtual environment
rm -rf .venv && python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt
```
