The `kempner_interactive` partition is intended for interactive sessions, prototyping, debugging, and other lightweight development tasks, not for full-scale training or production runs. Because the GPUs are partitioned with MIG, each job receives a 20GB slice of an A100 rather than a full GPU. For resource-intensive jobs, use the `kempner`or `kempner_h100` partitions instead.

Please use the [Kempner requeue](https://docs.rc.fas.harvard.edu/kb/kempner-partitions/) partition if you want to try out something resource intensive but not urgent. This work may be requeued by higher priority work, so you should implement checkpointing in the event that something higher priority interrupts your run.
