title: Is Word2vec memory and time consuming?
body: <p>I am trying to train a Word2Vec model using neural Networks. My question is as follows:</p>
  
  <p>Correct me if I am wrong: word2vec uses as input text, which doesn't have the same order of magnitude as images ( with respect to memory) ? Does this imply that there is no need to use GPU for training a word2vec model , and by the way a 64Go Virtual cloud machine is enough to make training? Text uses for training can't exced 5-10Go?</p>
