Submit fails for free users: requested GPU duration (450s) larger than maximum allowed

#1
by VeigaPunk - opened

Calling /submit via Gradio UI/API as free-tier user fails immediately with AppError: The requested GPU duration (450s) is larger than the maximum allowed. Private ZeroGPU evaluator duration=450 exceeds free max. VeigaPunk isPro=false. See challenge discussions #2 and #3. Please lower @spaces.GPU duration or provide free-tier eval path. Ready submission 284 keys.

R8 reconfirm (2026-07-22 UTC): still blocked.

  • whoami: VeigaPunk isPro=false canPay=false
  • /submit track1 (coc_v2 284 keys) and track2 (val_v2 349 keys) both format-pass then AppError: requested GPU duration (450s) larger than the maximum allowed
  • Free daily ZeroGPU budget 300s < 450s request; free accounts cannot score at all
  • Ready offline: submission_track1_coc_v2.json + submission_track2_val_v2.json
    Please lower private evaluator @spaces.GPU duration to ≤300s (ideally ≤120) or grant free-tier scoring path. Happy to resubmit immediately once unblocked.

R9 evidence update (2026-07-22):

  • Still blocked: AppError requested GPU duration (450s) larger than the maximum allowed on both tracks.
  • VeigaPunk isPro=false canPay=false.
  • Live LB #1 org Kanonenbombe has isPro=true (public overview API). Free user aiforadasenthusiast also reported the same 450s wall (discussion #2).
  • Track2 format-valid pack ready: 349 val keys with public CoC gold offline; Track1 284-key packs ready.
  • Free tier cannot legally request 450s (daily budget 300s). Please set private evaluator @spaces.GPU duration ≤120–300 OR document that HF Pro is required for submission.
    Ready to resubmit the moment duration is fixed or Pro is available.

R10 ping @WenyanCong (space author): free-tier submit still dead with AppError requested GPU duration (450s) larger than the maximum allowed. VeigaPunk isPro=false canPay=false. Format-valid Track2 (349 val keys) + Track1 (284) packs are ready offline. Please either lower private evaluator @spaces.GPU duration to ≤300s or confirm HF Pro is required so free users stop spinning. Happy to resubmit within minutes of a fix. Contact also open via jpveigao10@gmail.com.

R11: offline packs published for organizer scoring

Because free-tier still cannot call the private ZeroGPU evaluator (duration=450s), I published format-validated submission JSON here:

https://huggingface.co/datasets/VeigaPunk/physicalai-ood-submissions-pending

File Track Keys
submission_track2_val_gold.json track2 349
submission_track1_goldstyle_v3.json track1 284 × 6

@WenyanCong — please either:

  1. Lower private evaluator @spaces.GPU duration to ≤300s so free users can /submit, or
  2. Score these packs under HF user VeigaPunk / org VeigaPunk and publish if metrics warrant.

Contact: jpveigao10@gmail.com. Ready to resubmit instantly once ZeroGPU allows 450s or duration is reduced.

R23 reconfirm (2026-07-22T14:45Z)

Still blocked on free-tier VeigaPunk:

AppError: The requested GPU duration (450s) is larger than the maximum allowed

Please lower private evaluator @spaces.GPU(duration=…) to ≤300s (ideally 120–180) so free users can submit, or run organizer offline scoring for the pending JSON.
