Crowd Sourced Deep Learning GPU Benchmarks from the Community

crowd sourced deep learning gpu benchmarks from the community

We open sourced the benchmarking code we use at Lambda Labs so that anybody can reproduce the benchmarks that we publish or run their own. We encourage people to email us with their results and will continue to publish those results here. You can run the code and email benchmarks@lambdalabs.com or tweet @LambdaAPI. This is the official page for all Lambda Community Benchmarks.

How to get your results published here

Component        | Version
-----------------|------------
CPU              | $(cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'model name' | uniq | awk -F: '{ print $2 }')
Distro	         | $(lsb_release -d)
Kernel Version   | $(uname -r)
Kernel Arch      | $(uname -m)
GPU              | $(sudo lspci | grep VGA\ compat | head -n1)
Tensorflow       | $(python -c 'import tensorflow;print(tensorflow.__version__)' 2> /dev/null)
NVIDIA Driver    | $(head -n1 /proc/driver/nvidia/version | awk '{ print $8 }')
CUDA	         | $(nvcc --version | tail -n 1 | grep Cuda | awk '{ print $6 }')
cuDNN	         | $(cat /usr/include/cudnn.h | grep -P 'define\ CUDNN_MAJOR|define\ CUDNN_MINOR|define\ CUDNN_PATCHLEVEL' | awk '{ print $3 }' | sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/./g')
Python	         | $(python --version 2>&1)
