I'm thinking putting a bit more work on the GPU with a move to EffV2-S @ 80% scaling might give you better workload distribution and the improved accuracy couldn't hurt.

Re: Intel big-little headache
Thanks, what model config? Assuming Phase-A, what output resolution, encoder used, Batch Size and EGs/s for this session? 248w is still short of 450w and 74% utilization would suggest it's not quite fully utilized although that's point in time utilization. I didn't expect training would need a flags...

Re: Intel big-little headache
The last two 4090 users that visited the discord where I spend most of my time only showed 170w power draw during training however that was just after release and we weren't sure if that was normal or just current level of support. Recently a user with both 3090 and 4090 commented that the 4090 is q...

Re: Intel big-little headache
Haha i did thought about lasso, but having more stuff run continuously in the background is something i always try to avoid. That's a surprising amount of CPU use for training, I practically idle during training. :lol: I just noticed recently during a BIOS update MSI now offers E-core disable via S...

Re: Intel big-little headache
I can see 4 E-cores not being enough for a 4090 and it is disappointing P-cores aren't automatically engaged when they're clearly maxed. I've been looking to upgrade to a 4090ti or titan and suspected I'd need a processor upgrade as well. This could help solve my puzzle as to which would be better a...

Re: Intel big-little headache
I've never noticed a bottleneck due to the P/E core design with W11 and a 12700K/3060. It's pretty obvious the bottleneck is the 3060 in this case. Even E-cores aren't hit that hard with FS tasks although recently I started using NVencC H265 encoding and there I see E cores maxed like I've rarely se...

Re: Slower training since the last update...
Nice speed bump for me so far. I've been using the same phaseA StoJo/SubPixel model for months and getting a pretty consistent 8.6 EGs/s @ BS8 which I use start to finish. First model I'm training since the update with the same settings is now doing 13.5 EGs/s 27K iterations in. Also noticed a bit o...

Re: [Guide] Introducing - Phaze-A
My first thought if you were having issues with StoJo was are you overclocking but that appears to not be the case. If you stick with the Phase A defaults or presets you shouldn't have issues. If you can't run those successfully, I'd run some health checks. Funny thing with GPU's they can seem perfe...

Re: [Guide] Introducing - Phaze-A
It's likely available VRAM is going to be your issue. Can you run Stojo? You could try dropping scaling to 60 as well to lighten the load making the only difference between this model and stojo being the use of Dyn as the decoder upsale method and dropping of G-Block.

Re: [Guide] Introducing - Phaze-A
I don't think you mean FS is crashing but the training is exiting with an OOM error correct? I can't imagine running a model would corrupt the FS install and BS 3 should be doable, I think I used BS6 on a 3060/Win11 with a 1080p desktop. I did have to disable both initializers which I usually use (w...

Re: [Guide] Introducing - Phaze-A
Been working on learning how to read the model summaries and doing a bit of poking in the dark reverse engineering. Noticed that the default Phase A model seems to have been designed for use with the fs_original encoder with its parameters while the Stojo model looks to be designed for Efficinet. Th...

Re: Live Preview with Colab
-w works! You can even bring it up in the notebook with split or tabbed views. Unfortunately it doesn't automatically update in the viewer but just to have easy access to it makes the whole platform more productive. Put a markup cell with a code segment above training with the path to the preview. J...

Yes, I copied the .faceswap from my local install to the config folder in drive and copy it and the training.ini.

Re: [Resource] Training Using Google Colab
Yes, found that same thread and decided on the following since it has a method to enable/disable. Changed it to target the comments instead of connect and that seemed to work enough to pass the first level check for interactivity. Carried me all the way through the hours I had left of the 12hr timeo...

Live Preview with Colab
I tried using the -p option in Colab and it ended up crashing and corrupting the .h5 file in the model, thankful for the backup. 
Tried several times with the same result.
Has anyone got live preview to work with Colab

Re: [Resource] Training Using Google Colab
Good point, will make the change to data transfer. What are you using to bypass the colab interactive timeout? I have the javascript to click the connect button but I'm not a fan of how that keeps opening the cpu/gpu graphs. I found some javascript to click the comments button instead but would like...

Re: [Resource] Training Using Google Colab
Thank you. I was thinking something with the colab required the alignment files but doh, yea I guess the notebook was made before that change so removed them from the training cell resolved that issue. Figured out the psutil issue, I was running the GPU check (which includes a psutil install) before...

Spent a couple days learning colab and using faceswap with it using the script in this post which saved a ton of time. I'm getting an error on training though which I can't seem to figure out.
