#### Distributed and 16-bit precision.
Due to an issue with apex and DistributedDataParallel (PyTorch and NVIDIA issue), Lightning does
not allow 16-bit and DP training. We tried to get this to work, but it's an issue on their end.
| 1 GPU | 1+ GPUs | DP | DDP | 16-bit | command |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Y | | | | Y | ```Trainer(gpus=[0])``` |
| | Y | Y | | | ```Trainer(gpus=[0, ...])``` |
| | Y | | Y | | ```Trainer(gpus=[0, ...], distributed_backend='ddp')``` |
