This is one of the basic avenues for advancement.

Compute, bytes of ram used, bytes in model, bytes accessed per iteration, bytes of data used for training.

The recent optimisation project have been pushing at these various properties. Sometimes gains in one comes at the cost of another, but that needn't always be the case.
