hello,I have same question。do you find some function to disable hybrization?
and i have another quesion that is how to release gpu memory?
could you help me?

[szha]

you can disable hybridization with net.hybridize(active=False)

[szha]

GPU memory held by memory pool can be released by mx.gpu(0).empty_cache()

Hi @jyotibalodhi, I recommend checking out our contribution guide for guides and expectation for the contributions. Feel free to ping me if you have questions.

[jyotibalodhi]

Hi, @szha I went through the contribution guidelines. And I was wondering if only I have to add details about this instruction net.hybridize(active=False) for disabling hybridization or anything else needs to be done.
I am new to the community and open source contributions as well, so it would be great if you could let me know how can I contact you regarding any further questions related to the project.

[szha]

Yes, I think that's the intended scope of this issue.

The "stay connected" section includes the communication channels the developers use such as Apache's mailing list and Slack #mxnet channel.

It looks like this issue has been a little over 6 months.
Let me know if it's still open and needs attention, Thanks
