Patchwork system slashes simulation resource use by 92%

Researchers have developed Patchwork, a novel system designed to optimize resource sharing in domain-randomized embodied simulations. This system separates common scene resources into shared templates and specific mutations into patches, significantly reducing CPU RSS by up to 92% at 32 replicas compared to traditional process-per-environment execution. Patchwork's layered runtime efficiently shares compiled model structures and immutable assets while maintaining private simulation states for each instance, effectively shifting memory growth towards template diversity rather than instance count.

    Replicate What Varies: Resource Sharing for Domain-Randomized Embodied Simulation

    arXiv:2610.33582v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Simulation provides a low-cost sandbox where embodied agents can attempt tasks, observe outcomes, and learn from experience. Running many diverse simulation environments concurrently can consume substantial CPU and GPU memory beca…
