Summary from the TLDR Data newsletter

NVIDIA demonstrates how modern CUDA tools can make GPU code safer and dramatically faster by combining better debugging, optimized CUB algorithms, pooled memory, pinned transfers, and asynchronous streams. These incremental changes reduced an image-processing pipeline from 6.8 seconds to 23 milliseconds, a roughly 300x speedup.
