It has a large and active community, and it supports a wide range of programming languages, including Python, Scala, Java, and R.\n\nRay is a high-performance distributed computing system that is designed to handle complex workloads that require low latency and high throughput. It has a flexible and modular architecture that allows it to scale seamlessly from a single machine to a large cluster. Ray can be used to accelerate machine learning workloads, and it has built-in support for popular deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch.\n\nDask is a Python library that provides parallel and distributed computing capabilities for analytics and scientific computing workloads. It is designed to be used with Pandas and NumPy, and it provides big data collections that mimic the APIs of those libraries. Dask is well-suited for tasks that require parallel processing of large datasets, such as data cleaning, transformation, and analysis.\n\nRay and Dask can interoperate, allowing users to leverage the strengths of both systems. For example, RayDP (\"Spark on Ray\") enables the use of Spark inside a Ray program, allowing users to read input data using Spark, process it using Spark SQL, DataFrame, or Pandas (via Koalas) API, extract and transform features using Spark MLLib, and use RayDP Estimator API for distributed training.\n\nIn terms of performance, a detailed comparison between Ray Data and Apache Spark can be found in the Offline Batch Inference report.

This allows you to configure failure handling of individual trials. However, Ray Tuner does not directly provide a way to set a memory limit for each trial.

You can also specify multiple directories for spilling to spread the IO load and disk space usage across multiple physical devices if needed. To optimize the performance, it is recommended to use an SSD instead of an HDD when using object spilling for memory-intensive workloads. If you are using an HDD, it is recommended that you specify a large buffer size (> 1MB) to reduce IO requests during spilling. To prevent running out of disk space, local object spilling will throw OutOfDiskError if the disk utilization exceeds the predefined threshold. You can adjust the threshold by setting local_fs_capacity_threshold, or set it to 1 to disable the protection. You can also enable object spilling to remote storage (any URI supported by smart_open).
