NVIDIA Smashes Performance Records on AI Inference - Seite 2

NVIDIA A100, introduced earlier this year and featuring third-generation Tensor Cores and Multi-Instance GPU technology, increased its lead on the ResNet-50 test, beating CPUs by 30x versus 6x in the last round. Additionally, A100 outperformed the latest CPUs by up to 237x in the newly added recommender test for data center inference, according to the MLPerf Inference 0.7 benchmarks.

This means a single NVIDIA DGX A100 system can provide the same performance as about 1,000 dual-socket CPU servers, offering customers extreme cost efficiency when taking their AI recommender models from research to production.

The benchmarks also show that NVIDIA T4 Tensor Core GPU continues to be a solid inference platform for mainstream enterprise, edge servers and cost-effective cloud instances. NVIDIA T4 GPUs beat CPUs by up to 28x in the same tests. In addition, the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier is the performance leader among SoC-based edge devices.

Achieving these results required a highly optimized software stack including NVIDIA TensorRT inference optimizer and NVIDIA Triton inference serving software, both available on NGC, NVIDIA’s software catalog.  

In addition to NVIDIA’s own submissions, 11 NVIDIA partners submitted a total of 1,029 results using NVIDIA GPUs, representing over 85 percent of the total submissions in the data center and edge categories. 

About NVIDIA
NVIDIA’s (NASDAQ: NVDA) invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world.
