Questions:

will this ever be supported?
Why does the eval set have to be fixed?
How do we avoid memory issues because when the train set samples data to log and the eval data set samples to log I’ve gotten OM issues. Can they run seperately?

Trainer will evaluate using my entire validation set(60k), which gives me cuda memory usage issue:. Is there a param that allows evaluating only on some batches in validation set? Beginners	4	1334	April 29, 2022
