DeserializeFromStream
function callsTensorFromStream
, where it has the following code:Paddle/paddle/fluid/framework/tensor_util.cc
Lines 319 to 336 in ccc594e
This means that
TensorFromStream
will first load tensor from disk to CPU place, if the load op is run on GPU place, it will copy the tensor to GPU viaframework::TensorCopy(cpu_tensor, dst_place, dev_ctx, tensor);
So in the load op, we don't need to do the copy from CPU to GPU again.
