Object Spilling
|
|
===============
|
|
.. _object-spilling:
|
|
|
|
Ray spills objects to a directory in the local filesystem once the object store is full. By default, Ray
|
|
spills objects to the temporary directory (for example, ``/tmp/ray/session_2025-03-28_00-05-20_204810_2814690``).
|
|
|
|
Spilling to a custom directory
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can specify a custom directory for spilling objects by setting the
|
|
``object_spilling_directory`` parameter in the ``ray.init`` function or the
|
|
``--object-spilling-directory`` command line option in the ``ray start`` command.

|
.. doctest::
|
|
|
|
ray.init(object_spilling_directory="/path/to/spill/dir")
|
|
|
|
.. tab-item:: CLI
|
|
|
|
.. doctest::
|
|
|
|
ray start --object-spilling-directory=/path/to/spill/dir

Stats
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
When spilling is happening, the following INFO level messages are printed to the Raylet logs. For example, ``/tmp/ray/session_latest/logs/raylet.out``::
|
|
|
|
local_object_manager.cc:166: Spilled 50 MiB, 1 objects, write throughput 230 MiB/s
|
|
local_object_manager.cc:334: Restored 50 MiB, 1 objects, read throughput 505 MiB/s
|
|
|
|
You can also view cluster-wide spill stats by using the ``ray memory`` command::
|
|
|
|
--- Aggregate object store stats across all nodes ---
|
|
Plasma memory usage 50 MiB, 1 objects, 50.0% full
|
|
Spilled 200 MiB, 4 objects, avg write throughput 570 MiB/s
|
|
Restored 150 MiB, 3 objects, avg read throughput 1361 MiB/s
|
|
|
|
If you only want to display cluster-wide spill stats, use ``ray memory --stats-only``.
