I tried the following code:
def test_speed():
print('Computing X and X2...', end='', flush=True)
X_np = np.random.uniform(0, 100, size=(10000, 1000)).astype(floatX)
X2_np = np.random.uniform(0, 100, size=(10000, 1000)).astype(floatX)
print('done!', flush=True)
print('Moving X and X2 to the GPU...', end='', flush=True)
X = theano.shared(X_np)
X2 = theano.shared(X2_np)
print('done!', flush=True)
print('Building the graph...', end='', flush=True)
Y = X
for _ in range(100):
# Y = Y * (Y <= X2)
Y = Y * (Y - X2)
Y.sum(axis=1)
print('done!', flush=True)
print('compiling...', end='', flush=True)
f = theano.function([], Y)
print('done!', flush=True)
import time
t = time.clock()
f()
print(time.clock() - t)
Note that there is a line with '<=' and another with '-' in the loop.
They're exclusive. Here are the timings in seconds:
CPU GPU
'-' 0.21 0.016
<= 0.39 0.019
I'd say I don't need to worry about using comparisons.
