This feature is based o ### Why is it that my train test has a CPU warning but my wagon test was fine? -This usually happens in a situation where the wagon test (which runs on a single core) uses so much memory that it doesn't fit a single core job on the grid and therefore needs two cores for the train (more cores means a higher memory allowance). But if the devices in the wagon cannot be parallelised well over multiple cores, this leads to more wall time and a higher CPU usage as the cores will be underutilised. In this situation, one can either reduce the wagon memory consumption to fit into a single core or reduce the CPU consumption to fit the dataset. \ No newline at end of file +This usually happens in a situation where the wagon test (which runs on a single core) uses so much memory that it doesn't fit a single core job on the grid and therefore needs two cores for the train (more cores means a higher memory allowance).
