This PR uses the new
ShareDatamethod of blobs to implicitly copy parameter blobs (weights/biases) from the train net to the test net. I tested the imagenet model on GPU to confirm that memory is saved (233 MB, which makes sense as this is roughly the size of the saved imagenet parameters) once the test net is initialized:Note that the test net initialization still uses extra memory because its data blobs (which store bottom/top inputs/outputs in each layer) are still allocated.
