FAQ
Here are the answers to the questions people frequently ask about Haystack.
How can I make sure that my GPU is being engaged when I use Haystack?
You will want to ensure that a CUDA enabled GPU is being engaged when Haystack is running (you can check by running nvidia-smi -l on your command line). Components which can be sped up by GPU have a use_gpu argument in their constructor which you will want to set to True.
Are you tracking my Haystack usage?
We only collect anonymous usage statistics of Haystack Pipeline components. Read more about telemetry in Haystack or how you can opt out on the Telemetry page.
How can I disable progress bars in Haystack?
