Additional Limitations

  • Long Startup Due to Model Optimization
    During the startup, the Redact-Edge performs model optimization, which can take several minutes on server-grade GPUs and up to 30 minutes on Jetson devices. This process occurs everytime the container is started. While model optimization is in progress, do not stop, remove, or restart the Docker container. Interrupting this process may cause errors, and the optimization will have to start over. You can monitor progress by checking the Docker logs, and the container will indicate when it's ready with a message: "Container started".
