how to increase the “soft memory limit” for google app engine beyond 2gb

问题

I am exceeding the soft memory limit in google app engine (4 to 6 gb, soft limit is set at 2gb) by using this app yaml file:

runtime: python37
service: snow
instance_class: F4_1G
resources:
  cpu: 1
  memory_gb: 16
  disk_size_gb: 20

It appears the resources memory_gb is not related to the "soft limit" memory. When booting up my app, I need to train an ML model that takes around 4 to 6gb memory. Is there any other way to increase the memory during app deployment?

This is because you are trying to configure resource settings in App Engine Standard. The resources section is only configurable in App Engine Flexible [1]. I suggest adding env: flex in the app.yaml for it to take into effect.
