+
+### :star2: New features
+* File-based training for `*2Vec` models (__[@persiyanov](https://github.com/persiyanov)__, [#2127](https://github.com/RaRe-Technologies/gensim/pull/2127) & [#2078](https://github.com/RaRe-Technologies/gensim/pull/2078) & [#2048](https://github.com/RaRe-Technologies/gensim/pull/2048))
+
+  New training mode for `*2Vec` models (word2vec, doc2vec, fasttext) that allows model training to scale linearly with the number of cores (full GIL elimination). The result of our Google Summer of Code 2018 project by Dmitry Persiyanov.
+
+  **Benchmark**
+  - Dataset: full English Wikipedia
+  - Cloud: GCE
+  - CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU @ 2.30GHz 32 cores
+  - BLAS: libblas3 (3.7.1-3ubuntu2)
+
+
+  | Model | Queue-based version [sec] | File-based version [sec] | speed up | Accuracy (queue-based) | Accuracy (file-based) |
+  |-------|------------|--------------------|----------|----------------|-----------------------|
+  | Word2Vec | 9230 | **2437** | **3.79x** | 0.754 (± 0.003) | 0.750 (± 0.001) |
+  | Doc2Vec | 18264 | **2889** | **6.32x** | 0.721 (± 0.002) | 0.683 (± 0.003) |
+  | FastText | 16361 | **10625** | **1.54x** | 0.642 (± 0.002) | 0.660 (± 0.001) |
+
+  Usage:
+
+  ```python
+  import gensim.downloader as api
+  from multiprocessing import cpu_count
+  from gensim.utils import save_as_line_sentence
+  from gensim.test.utils import get_tmpfile
+  from gensim.models import Word2Vec, Doc2Vec, FastText
+
+
+  # Convert any corpus to the needed format: 1 document per line, words delimited by " "
+  corpus = api.load("text8")
+  corpus_fname = get_tmpfile("text8-file-sentence.txt")
+  save_as_line_sentence(corpus, corpus_fname)
+
+  # Choose num of cores that you want to use (let's use all, models scale linearly now!)
+  num_cores = cpu_count()
+
+  # Train models using all cores
+  w2v_model = Word2Vec(corpus_file=corpus_fname, workers=num_cores)
+  d2v_model = Doc2Vec(corpus_file=corpus_fname, workers=num_cores)
+  ft_model = FastText(corpus_file=corpus_fname, workers=num_cores)
+
+  ```
