Currently the benchmark fails if the memory required is not available. The min. memory requirement should at least be documented on the website, and ideally checked for when launching the benchmark.

Hi,
The system memory on the test system is 12GB and 16GB.
The VRAM of dGPU(NV GeForce MX550) is 2GB.
I didn't see the min. memory requirement should at least be documented.
Could you help to provide the document?
Thank you!

There is no document for this, it needs to be mentioned in the README or on the website once the information is available. If you can, try to profile the benchmark and verify how VRAM it requires to run successfully.

HI,
The AMD platform is UMA, the test is FAIL.
Also, NV GeForce MX550 VRAM is 2GB, the test is FAIL.
Please help to come out with the minimum requirement for the Blender benchmark. Thank you!

Cycles dynamically allocates memory depending on hardware availability, so it's not possible to give an exact answer. We have an approximate figure though, 4GB. Will add this info to the website.
