Having problems running benchmark on raspi

Hello, I have currently setup my computer and raspi to run benchmarking through rpc. I am able to run the first three models squeezenet_v1.1, mobilenet, and resenet. However, my benchmark is failing at vgg16 consistently. Is this a timeout issue, if it is, where can i tune my timeout? Im running

python3 arm_cpu_imagenet_bench.py --model rasp3b --rpc-key rasp3b.

I am using llvm 4.0

If this is an end-to-end benchmark, then it should not be a timeout issue. However, VGG is very memory hungry, so it could be an out-of-memory issue if the board has other things using memory concurrently.

Do you have any ideas how i can solve this issue? Is this a code or a hardware issue?

Can you check the memory utilization of the board before and after running the benchmark?
