are you sure this will run on GPU? I quickly tested it and I see only 1 CPU thread being used at 100% for the program. There is absolutely no GPU utilization, GPU = 0%

Sure.

Code:
import os
os.environ['CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'] = "0"
import numpy as np
import numba
from numba import cuda, jit
from timeit import default_timer as timer
# Run on CPU
def cpu(a):
    for i in range(10000000):
        a[i]+= 1
# Run on GPU
numba.jit()
def gpu(x):
    return x+1
if __name__=="__main__":
    n = 10000000
    a = np.ones(n, dtype = np.float64)
    start = timer()
    cpu(a)
    print("without GPU:", timer()-start)
    start = timer()
    gpu(a)
    numba.cuda.profile_stop()
    print("with GPU:", timer()-start)
There is no theory that my  CPU can go 10 milon operations for 0.08 seconds
without GPU: 3.9892993430003116 seconds
with GPU: 0.08131437800147978  seconds
