Multi-GPU training can significantly speed up the training process of deep learning models. This page provides tutorials on how to set up and optimize multi-GPU training for various frameworks.

Common Challenges

  • Data Distribution: Ensuring that the data is evenly distributed across GPUs.
  • Model Parallelism: Splitting the model architecture across multiple GPUs.
  • Batch Size Adjustment: Adjusting the batch size to utilize the additional GPUs efficiently.

Tutorials

PyTorch Multi-GPU Setup

To train a model on multiple GPUs using PyTorch, you can use the DataParallel or DistributedDataParallel modules.

TensorFlow Multi-GPU Setup

TensorFlow provides the tf.distribute.Strategy API for multi-GPU training.

cuDNN Optimization

cuDNN is a library designed to accelerate deep learning neural network computations. Optimizing your model for cuDNN can lead to significant performance improvements.

Tips for Efficient Multi-GPU Training

  • Use a Large Batch Size: A larger batch size can lead to better utilization of the GPUs.
  • Optimize Your Model: Ensure that your model is optimized for parallel processing.
  • Monitor Your Training: Keep an eye on the training metrics to ensure that the multi-GPU setup is working correctly.
