             Summary: Add memory manange API and implement a subclass using CNMeM
                 Key: SINGA-175
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SINGA-175
             Project: Singa
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: wangwei


We have associated each Tensor associated with a reference counter for garbage collection. Tensor is then can be used without worrying about memory leak.
To avoid frequently malloc/free gpu or cpu memory due to Tensor creation and deletion, we need a memory pool. This ticket is going to create a memory manager that manages a memory pool for each device.
Particularly, we will implement a specific memory manager using the https://github.com/NVIDIA/cnmem for CudaGPU devices.
