Explainer: Why your legacy storage is choking your expensive GPU
When your accelerators sit idle, the problem usually isn't the chips. It's everything between them and the data. Rather than thinking purely about GPU performance, it's time to think about storage as an active engine for throughput, rather than a passive archive. Legacy storage architectures aren't built that way. What is GPU starvation? A starved GPU is an accelerator waiting around with nothing to do because data isn't arriving quickly enough. Sometimes the network is choking; in other cases,
