Inference time is not matching with reported #100

It is reported in the paper that Intel Xeon CPU E5-2698 v4 @ 2.20GHz and 512GB memory is used for time profiling. Also "On the WikilinksNED Unseen-Mentions test dataset which contains 10K queries, it takes 9.2 ms on average to return top 100 candidates per query in batch mode".

Does that mean, inference is done only in CPU and no GPU was used ( in case of 9.2 ms )? Also can you please share what were some of the parameter values such as "max_seq_length", "max_cand_length", "max_context_length" and "eval_batch_size" in this particular case (9.2 ms inference time)
