Description

Some speed up over the original WaveRNN training example.

Here is a working version on gist.

On a 8 GPU machine, it should be 10 times faster with batch size 256.

Research direction

Start with examples/pipeline_wavernn/main.py and compare it with the working version in the linked gist. Determine how the distributed data-parallel training should fit the example, then verify that the implementation trains WaveRNN across eight GPUs with the expected speedup.
