Jetpack Vision for Deeplearning issue

DeepLearning is currently using JetPack 4.2.1, mainly using the latest version of TensorRT5.1 (which provides access to the DLA API in Xavier),With JetPack4.2, parsing took 15ms to make an inference. after upgraded to JetPack4.2.1, the Parsing process took 27ms ,more 13ms then previous versions , based on the same input and procedure.
what make this happened?
thanks

Hi,

Do you mean the compile time to convert a model from original frameworks (ex.caffe, tensorflow) into TensorRT engine?

The converting time differs by the algorithm, and the algorithm is automatically chosen by the TensorRT.
With an improved algorithm, it may take longer to compile the TensorRT engine.
But this conversion is one-time job and you should get some performance improvement in inference.

Thanks.

HI, i have a problem,In JetPack 4.2, I test googlenet every layer time :

Q:What is the cause of this?I just upgraded JetPack

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this.
This looks strange to me. We will try to reproduce this and update more information with you later.

Hi,

We cannot reproduce this issue in our environment.
The performance is improved from JetPack4.2 to JetPack4.2.1.

[JetPack-4.2/r32.1]
Average over 10 runs is 6.47702 ms (host walltime is 6.57044 ms, 99% percentile time is 6.57357).

[JetPack-4.2.1/r32.2]
Average over 10 runs is 5.46243 ms (host walltime is 5.54187 ms, 99% percentile time is 5.54166).

Have you maximized the device performance before profiling?
The profiling results may not be optimal if the device is not locked in the maximal clocks.

sudo nvpmodel -m 0
sudo jetson_clocks

Thanks.

thanks , Solve my problem。but i have question: i just use command

sudo jetson_clocks

the profiling result unusual but if

sudo nvpmodel -m 0

sudo jetson_clocks

the profiling result is OK!

Q:nvpmodel ,What is its role?

Hi,

nvpmodel help to configure the device into difference usecase, ex. low-power, performance, …
Mode ID=0 is the performance mode.

You can find the detail of each mode in our document:

Thanks.
