did fist finetuning from og sd1.5 model. not very special results yet, but its possible to finetune sd1.5 with just 8gb vram. it took maybe an hour using 21 pictures.
Discussion
Some comments on training with 8gb RAM in wsl:
- xformers is needed, but installing it May break everything. Make sure bitsandbytes works with your cuda version. Note that .sh script overrides installed packages. Start with:
python webui.py --xformers
Default settings in dreambooth works ok. Make sure xformers is selected.
Resuming from previously finished checkpoint wants massive amounts of RAM. Starting training from og SD 1.5 works best. So far no success trying to train from Basil mix checkpoint.
I have set up wsl with 9GB RAM, 6gb swap
