Speed comparison with other frameworks

[NareshGuru77]

Hello!

I am moving from mammoth (https://github.com/aimagelab/mammoth) repository to avalanche.

I notice than the mammoth repository is generally faster than avalanche under the same experimental settings, cpu and gpu.

In order to understand whether this issue comes from my use of avalanche or there are issues in avalanche itself, I was wondering whether a timing comparison has been made with other existing frameworks.

Thank you!

Dear @NareshGuru77, thanks for considering using Avalanche for your work!

From my understanding Mammoth is more limited than Avalanche in terms of offered functionalities and hence less complex in terms of codebase. It makes sense that for some vertical experiments it may be faster. However, I'm not aware of any benchmark analysis in terms of efficiency.

Maybe if you can share your code or provide more details about the experiment you are running, we may gather more insights and help you out with optimizing your code!

Moving this to the discussion tab since it is not an issue!
