Saving on Paperspace

GPUs are billed by the hour, so the single biggest saving is stopping instances the moment you stop using them rather than leaving them running.

How to keep costs down

  1. Use the free notebook tiers for light experiments.
  2. Pick the smallest GPU that handles your model.
  3. Shut instances down as soon as a job finishes.

Worth knowing

Bigger GPUs cost a lot more per hour, so it pays to profile whether you actually need them. Storage keeps billing even when an instance is off, so clear out datasets and volumes you no longer need.
