Talked to the person who ran resnet50 benchmarks offline. Build flag was not properly set so there was a difference in performance numbers observed. There is no issue caught and he was able to get the same results as mentioned here https://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/faq/perf.html <https://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/faq/perf.html#scoring-results>
We are good here. Thanks, Roshani On Mon, Aug 13, 2018 at 4:08 PM Roshani Nagmote <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Dom, > > I verified resnet50 run on MXNet master branch.
