[GitHub] szhengac opened a new issue #11796: Batch_dot does not support FP16 well

szhengac opened a new issue #11796: Batch_dot does not support FP16 well
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/11796
 
 
   The `batch_dot` does not support FP16 well and can make training slower compared to using FP32. This is tested using [Transformer](https://github.com/dmlc/gluon-nlp/blob/master/scripts/nmt/train_transformer.py) model in Gluonnlp. This feature has been added in a [NVIDIA mxnet](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/dgx/mxnet-release-notes/rel_17.11.html#rel_17.11). So I think it is good to enable this in the master.
