tensorflow 单机多GPU训练时间比单卡更慢/没有很大时间上提升

使用tensorflow model库里的cifar10 多gpu训练时，最后测试发现时间并没有减少，反而更慢

参考以下两个链接

原因可能是在cpu上进行参数梯度同步占每一步的很大比例

‘’‘

It seems that CPU-side data-preprocessing can be one of the reason that greatly slow down the multi-GPU training, do you try disabling some pre-processing options such as data-augmentation and then see any boost?

Besides, the current version of multi_gpu_model seems to benefit large NN-models only, such as Xception, since weights synchronization is not the bottleneck. When it is wrapped to simple model such as mnist_cnn and cifar_cnn, weights synchronization is pretty frequent and makes the whole time much slower.

然后看到建议上提高模型复杂度(尤其是卷积层数)或者提高输入数据的大小，就可以看到多gpu训练的优势效果了
