w tensor would bring total memory consumption down to 3x the size of z. However, more memory can be saved by writing output chunks directly to z in-place. WLOG, we choose to write output chunks vertically, overwriting the ith "column" of z at the end of the ith iteration of the main loop. Despite this overwriting, the ith column is always one column ahead of previously overwritten columns and can be recovered directly from z. After the first iteration, however, the ith row of z is always at least partially overwritten. For this reason, we introduce the z-cache, a tensor one-half the size of z. The z-cache initially contains the left half (2nd and 3rd quadrants) of z. For 0 < i < N/2, the missing left part of the ith row of z is recovered from this cache at the beginning of the ith iteration. Once i exceeds n/2, the cache is "reoriented" to encompass the 3rd and 4th quadrants of z instead. Though the 3rd quadrant of the original z is entirely overwritten at this point, it can be recovered from the z-cache itself. Thereafter, the ith row of z can be recovered in its entirety from the reoriented z-cache. After the final iteration, z has been completely overwritten and contains the triangular multiplicative update. If with_add is True, it instead contains the sum of z and the triangular multiplicative update. In either case, peak memory consumption is just 2.5x the size of z, disregarding memory used for chunks and other small variables. Nrq
