   @buaacszj: the contrib CTC implementation is basically just Warp-CTC (with 
one or two smallish changes). The Warp-CTC implementation was copied and 
adapted so that it could be compiled together with MXNet (rather than 
annoyingly having to compile it separately). If it has any speed difference, 
that will surprising (could you give the exact configuration you saw these 
large differences in speed for? And was this GPU or CPU?)
   
   Also: @szha did some speed tests against cuDNN 
(https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/7442). I think that this tested 
against the contrib symbol CTC, which was quite competitive with cuDNN CTC.
