The examples run more slowly on GPU than on CPU #32

Is this the expected behavior? Btw, I tested w/ a gtx-1070 gpu versus an i7-6700 CPU.

I only had the opportunity to test it on GPU with an AWS g2.2xlarge/g2.8xlarge instances, and indeed it was as fast as running it on CPU. Unfortunately I don't have access to any dedicated machine with a GPU at the moment, so I can't run any further tests on that.
