distributed.py contains the source code for `apex.parallel.DistributedDataParallel`, a module wrapper that enables multi-process multi-GPU data parallel training, optimized for NVIDIA's NCCL communication library.
`apex.parallel.DistributedDataParallel` achieves high performance by overlapping communication with
computation in the backward pass and bucketing smaller transfers to reduce the total number of
transfers required.

multiproc.py contains the source code for `apex.parallel.multiproc`, a launch utility that places one process on each of the node's available GPUs.
