I accidentally included the fix for #10 in this PR, too. |
…r versions of accelerate (which don't support it)

Thanks for the fix! Interesting though, because this wasn't a problem for me. Was it still the case with accumulate_gradient size 1? |

Underlying bug was that "global_steps" was only incrementing (by 1) at the end of each epoch. This lead to behavior where train_lora_dreambooth would compute twice as many steps as requested (which I & others on Reddit have seen).
I chose to use "--save_steps" as a hint, and only have it save at the end of epochs. So if an epoch is 120 steps, and you ask for "--save_steps 100", you'll get a save at step=120, 240, etc...
