Thanks! The wait on training is killing me, though. I've been doing large minibatch training to try to fix the remaining issues in the anime face StyleGAN and it's frustrating having to wait days to see clear improvement. Checking GAN samples is so addictive and undermines my ability to focus & get anything else done. I'm also eager to get started on full Danbooru image training, which I intend to initialize from skylion's model - whenever that finishes training...

(Who says we aren't compute-limited these days?!)

Haha, having to work around the computation limits are welcoming! It feels like building web apps back in the late 90's again. These days we have so much memory and disk space at hand it doesn't even feel like a challenge anymore.

That is, until Graphcore delivers their IPU.
