# CUDA Execution Provider
{: .no_toc }
The CUDA Execution Provider enables hardware accelerated computation on Nvidia CUDA-enabled GPUs.
## Contents

## Install
Pre-built binaries of ONNX Runtime with CUDA EP are published for most language bindings. Please reference [Install ORT](../install).
## Requirements
Please reference table below for official GPU packages dependencies for the ONNX Runtime inferencing package. Note that ONNX Runtime Training is aligned with PyTorch CUDA versions; refer to the Training tab on https://onnxruntime.ai/ for supported versions.

## Build
For build instructions, please see the [BUILD page](../build/eps.md#cuda).
## Configuration Options
The CUDA Execution Provider supports the following configuration options.
### device_id
The device ID.
Default value: 0
### gpu_mem_limit
The size limit of the device memory arena in bytes. This size limit is only for the execution provider's arena. The total device memory usage may be higher.
s: max value of C++ size_t type (effectively unlimited)
### arena_extend_strategy
The strategy for extending the device memory arena.
Value | Description
-|-
kNextPowerOfTwo (0) | subsequent extensions extend by larger amounts (multiplied by powers of two)
kSameAsRequested (1) | extend by the requested amount
Default value: kNextPowerOfTwo
### cudnn_conv_algo_search
The type of search done for cuDNN convolution algorithms.
Value | Description
-|-
EXHAUSTIVE (0) | expensive exhaustive benchmarking using cudnnFindConvolutionForwardAlgorithmEx
HEURISTIC (1) | lightweight heuristic based search using cudnnGetConvolutionForwardAlgorithm_v7
DEFAULT (2) | default algorithm using CUDNN_CONVOLUTION_FWD_ALGO_IMPLICIT_PRECOMP_GEMM
Default value: EXHAUSTIVE
### do_copy_in_default_stream
Whether to do copies in the default stream or use separate streams. The recommended setting is true. If false, there are race conditions and possibly better performance.
Default value: true
## Samples
### Python
```python
import onnxruntime as ort
model_path = '<path to model>'
providers = [
('CUDAExecutionProvider', {
'device_id': 0,
'arena_extend_strategy': 'kNextPowerOfTwo',
'gpu_mem_limit': 2 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024,
'cudnn_conv_algo_search': 'EXHAUSTIVE',
'do_copy_in_default_stream': True,
}),
'CPUExecutionProvider',
]
session = ort.InferenceSession(model_path, providers=providers)
```
### C/C++
```c++
OrtSessionOptions* session_options = /* ... */;
OrtCUDAProviderOptions options;
options.device_id = 0;
options.arena_extend_strategy = 0;
options.gpu_mem_limit = 2 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024;
options.cudnn_conv_algo_search = OrtCudnnConvAlgoSearch::EXHAUSTIVE;
options.do_copy_in_default_stream = 1;
SessionOptionsAppendExecutionProvider_CUDA(session_options, &options);
```
