Training takes too long #198

It seems to take 40h to run the training, and it takes only 600M CUDA Memory. Is it normal?

Activations trained on: 0%| | 4997120/1000000000 [12:35<40:55:48, 6752.73it/s, stage=train]

Let me rephrase my question: what's the file that deals with multi-GPU training for the autoencoder?
