I created a custom layer in python so that I can feed the data directly.
but I noticed it runs extremely slow and the GPU usage is at most 1% ( the memory is allocated, i.e. I can see that when I run the script, it allocates 2100MB VRAM and terminating the training, frees around 1G.
I'm not sure if this is an expected behavior or I'm doing something wrong.
Here is the script I wrote (based on this former pr) :
import json
import caffe
import numpy as np
from random import shuffle
from PIL import Image
class MyDataLayer(caffe.Layer):
"""
This is a simple datalayer for training a network on CIFAR10.

self.top_names = ['data', 'label']

# store input as class variables
self.batch_size = params['batch_size']
# Create a batch loader to load the images.
self.batch_loader = BatchLoader(params, None)
# === reshape tops ===
# since we use a fixed input image size, we can shape the data layer
# once. Else, we'd have to do it in the reshape call.
top[0].reshape(self.batch_size, 3, params['im_height'], params['im_width'])
# this is for our label, since we only have one label we set this to 1
top[1].reshape(self.batch_size, 1)

# Add directly to the caffe data layer

top[1].data[itt, ...] = label

And in my train_test.prototxt file I have :

Whats wrong here?
