Google Colab, different cards "available" / being assigned

I realize you generally have no control over what cards are assigned to the instance you connect to, but I was wondering what cards people have seen reported when using Google Colab? Also, if I realize that I have been given a specific card, are there settings that can be tweaked to optimize for that card?

Last week I was mainly being assigned Tesla K40 cards, but the last few days I have been getting Tesla K80 and also a Tesla T4 card. The T4 card seem to have almost double the performance (half the time to train one iteration with same settings and workspace) as the K80.

i've never gotten as k40, didn't even know they had those. It's hit or miss between the t4 and k80 though. no real tweaks for the k80 just take whatever settings you get best performance for on the t4 and use them but expect just about double the iteration time.
