Hello, this is a vote to upgrade our CI environment from the current CUDA 8.0 with CuDNN 5.0 to CUDA 9.1 with CuDNN 7.0. Reason being that NVCC under CUDA 8 does not support the Volta GPUs used in AWS P3 instances and thus limiting our test capabilities. More details are available at [1].
In order to introduce support for Quantization [1], I'd like to perform a system-wide upgrade. This should have no negative impact in our users but rather makes sure that we're actually testing with the latest versions. The PR is available at [3]. This means that we would stop verifying CUDA 8 and CuDNN 5.0 as part of our PR process. At a later point in time, this could be picked up as a candidate for an integration test as part of the nightly suite. This is a lazy vote, ending on 17th of March, 2018 at 17:00 (UTC +1).
