“…Nicolas Kowalski and Axel Antoniotti outline how Criteo approached this issue, discussing how Criteo profiled its model to understand its bottleneck; why commonly shared solutions such as optimizing TensorFlow build for the target hardware, freezing and cleaning up the model, and using accelerated linear algebra (XLA) ended up being lackluster; and how Criteo rewrote is models from scratch, reimplementing cross-features and hashing functions using low-level TF operations in order to factorize as much as possible all TensorFlow nodes in its model."…”

“… Intel-and AMD-powered PCs--which account for more than 90% of all personal computers--are powerful and expandable, and operating systems like Windows and Linux do a great job of running well on this hardware. But to maintain maximum stability and predictability, these operating systems don't push the hardware to its limits. …”
