* For parallel learning, should not use full CPU cores since this will cause poor performance for the network.

* Choose device for the tree learning, can use gpu to achieve the faster learning.
* Note: 1. Recommend use the smaller ```max_bin```(e.g ```63```) to get the better speed up. 2. For the faster speed, GPU use 32-bit float point to sum up by default, may affect the accuracy for some tasks. You can set ```gpu_use_dp=true``` to enable 64-bit float point, but it will slow down the training. 3. Refer to [Installation Guide](https://github.com/Microsoft/LightGBM/wiki/Installation-Guide#with-gpu-support) to build with GPU .
