As I don't have any GPU available, I decided to try the examples on AWS. They are running very slow on AWS 'p2-xlarge' instance. Much slower than on the video and even slower than on my desktop which doesn't have any GPU (2-3 slower--my visual estimation)
My config: instance p2-xlarge Ubuntu 16.04.2, tensorflow 1.2, python3, CUDA 8.0, cudaDNN 6 (installed as .deb from NVIDIA)
When I am running mnist_1.0 example and run nvidia-smi command in another window, it shows that the GPU is busy and it's running that same python process ID that is running the example.
When the example starts it shows that it has found the GPU and is using it:

All signs confirm that Tensorflow is using the GPU, but why it's so slow? It seems I'm missing something, but I can't find it.
Thanks,

The videos in the presentation are accelerated to be 20 sec long whatever the length of the original training run.
If you do not have a GPU, I recommend Google ML Engine. It's a training cluster as a service. You have a sample in the mlengine folder.

What I have tested so far:
