On Friday the contributors working on Java API discovered a potential performance problem with inference using Java API vs. Python. Investigation is ongoing. As the Java API is one of the main features for the upcoming release, I suggest to post-pone the code freeze towards end of this week.
Please provide feedback and concern about the change in dates for code freeze and 1.4.0 release. I will provide updates on progress resolving the potential performance problem. Patrick - do you think it is possible to resolve the remaining issues on MKL-DNN this week, so we can consider GA for MKL-DNN with 1.4.0?
