1 Our implementation of the GNR is 24.7 times faster at inference time than the official Bi-Directional Attention Flow implementation 2 .
on a machine running Ubuntu 14 with 40 Intel Xeon 2.6Ghz processors, 386GB of RAM, and a 12GB TitanX-Maxwell GPU, the GNR with beam size 32 and batch size 32 requires 51.58 ± 0.266 seconds (mean ± std) 3 to process the SQUAD validation set.
