Re: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release

Can this bug be fixed in 1.4.0 release? It's a significant performance
regression on sparse matrix multiplication.
https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/13449
Thanks,
Da

Re: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
Dear MXNet community, I will be the release manager for the upcoming Apache MXNet 1.4.0 release. Sergey Kolychev will be co-managing the release and providing help from the committers side. A release candidate will be cut on November 29, 2018 and voting will start December 7, 2018. Release notes have been drafted here [1]. If you have any additional features in progress and would like to include it in this release, please assure they have been merged by November 27, 2018. Release schedule is available here [2]. Feel free to add any other comments/suggestions. Please help to review and merge outstanding PR's and resolve issues impacting the quality of the 1.4.0 release. Regards, Steffen [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/Apache+MXNet+%28incubating%29+1.4.0+Release+Notes [2] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/Apache+MXNet+%28incubating%29+1.4.0+Release+Plan+and+Status On Tue, Nov 20, 2018 at 7:15 PM kellen sunderland < kellen.sunderl...@gmail.com> wrote: > Spoke too soon[1], looks like others have been adding Turing support as > well (thanks to those helping with this).

Re: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
Thanks Patrick, lets target to get the PR's merged this week. Call for contributions from the community: Right now we have 10 PR awaiting merge <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3Apr-awaiting-merge+> and we have 61 open PR awaiting review. <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3Apr-awaiting-review> I would appreciate if you all can help to review the open PR and the committers can drive the merge before code freeze for 1.4.0. The contributors on the Java API are making progress, but not all performance issues are resolved. With some luck it should be possible to code freeze towards end of this week. Are there other critical features/bugs/PR you think need to be included in 1.4.0? If so, please communicate as soon as possible.

RE: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
Thanks, Steffen. I think there is NO open issue to block the MKLDNN to GA now. BTW, several quantization related PRs (#13297,#13260) are under the review and I think it can be merged in this week.

Re: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
+1 to wait until Java API work is ready since it is a major feature of the release, yet performance should be at least on par with Python. Also, I consider the MKL-DNN feature to be another major feature of the release, the performance boost on CPU is significant [1], as an example, ResNet50-v1 is 15.9x faster on C5.18xlarge. I spoke with Alex Zai and Manu Seth who are working on MKL-DNN issues and test coverage, and they feel they can get all remaining open issues in for this Friday - I propose we also wait for that work to be ready and included in 1.4.0 Cheers, Hagay [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/MXNet+with+Intel+MKL-DNN+-+Performance+Benchmarking On Mon, Nov 19, 2018 at 10:57 AM Steffen Rochel wrote: > On Friday the contributors working on Java API discovered a potential > performance problem with inference using Java API vs. Python.

Re: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
On Friday the contributors working on Java API discovered a potential performance problem with inference using Java API vs. Python. Investigation is ongoing. As the Java API is one of the main features for the upcoming release, I suggest to post-pone the code freeze towards end of this week. Please provide feedback and concern about the change in dates for code freeze and 1.4.0 release. I will provide updates on progress resolving the potential performance problem. Patrick - do you think it is possible to resolve the remaining issues on MKL-DNN this week, so we can consider GA for MKL-DNN with 1.4.0?

Re: [Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
I'd like to remind everyone that 'code freeze' would mean cutting a v1.4.x release branch and all following fixes would need to be backported. Development on master can be continued as usual.

[Announce] Upcoming Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.4.0 release
Dear MXNet community, the agreed plan was to establish code freeze for 1.4.0 release today. As the 1.3.1 patch release is still ongoing I suggest to post-pone the code freeze to Friday 16th November 2018. Sergey Kolychev has agreed to act as co-release manager for all tasks which require committer privileges. If anybody is interested to volunteer as release manager - now is the time to speak up. Otherwise I will manage the release. Regards, Steffen
