With the help of the underlying PaddlePaddle framework, faster training and
reduced GPU memory footprint is achieved. Notably, Yolo V3 training is
much faster compared to other frameworks. Another example is Mask-RCNN
(ResNet50), we managed to fit up to 5 images per GPU (V100 16GB) during
training.

## FAQ
**Q:** Why do I get `NaN` loss values during single GPU training? </br>
**A:** The default learning rate is tuned to multi-GPU training (8x GPUs), it must
be adapted for single GPU training accordingly (e.g., divide by 8).
Q: Why do I get `NaN` loss values during single GPU training?
A: The default learning rate is tuned to multi-GPU training (8x GPUs), it must
be adapted for single GPU training accordingly (e.g., divide by 8).
**Q:** How to reduce GPU memory usage? </br>
**A:** Setting environment variable FLAGS_conv_workspace_size_limit to a smaller
number can reduce GPU memory footprint without affecting training speed.
Take Mask-RCNN (R50) as example, by setting `export FLAGS_conv_workspace_size_limit=512`,
batch size could reach 4 per GPU (Tesla V100 16GB).
