Description

Hi,
I am trying to get face encoding in ec2 machine. But it is talking around ~7 sec.
Image has only one person.

What I Did

Spin up ec2 instance c5.2xlarge. run face_encodings = face_recognition.face_encodings(image, {face_locations}, 100) in python console.

Please help me to understand why it is too slow in ec2.
