 Review comment:
   Thanks a lot for pointing this out! Yes, you're absolutely right. I'll fix 
this soon.

 Review comment:
   Yes, approximately (slightly higher recall@1 and slightly lower recall@16 
than what's reported in the paper). The difference is < 1%.
   
   The difference between this implementation and the original implementation 
is that here we perform sampling within each GPU while the original paper 
implements cross-gpu sampling. Since the performance is almost identical (at 
least on this dataset), I use per-gpu sampling here for simplicity.
