Why would that be "a bit unfair"? It sounds like the TensorFlow team just hasn't been able to make as many or as good of optimizations as the CNTK team. If they could have, but chose not to do the same things, what tradeoff is there to be able to say it's "a bit unfair"?

The binding of the word "they" is unclear in the comment you're replying to.

The "they" who chose not to use the cuDNN bindings were the authors of the benchmark. Some of the Torch folks filed a bug with the HKbench folks for the same error, but with respect to Torch: https://github.com/hclhkbu/dlbench/issues/14
