 # Scaling Performance
 
-Performance is **heavily** dependent on the PCIe topology of the system, the configuration of the neural network you are training, and the speed of each of the layers.  Systems like the DIGITS DevBox have an optimized PCIe topology (X99-E WS chipset).  In general, scaling on 2 GPUs tends to be ~1.8X on average for networks like AlexNet, CaffeNet, VGG, GoogleNet.  4 GPUs begins to have falloff in scaling.  Generally with "weak scaling" where the batchsize increases with the number of GPUs you will see 3.5x scaling or so.  With "strong scaling", the system can become communication bound, especially with layer performance optimizations like those in [cuDNNv3](http://nvidia.com/cudnn), and you will likely see closer to mid 2.x scaling in performance.  Networks that have heavy computation compared to the number of parameters tend to have the best scaling performance.
