• I have done the following trainings and thoroughly analyzed and compared all:

  • Fine Tuning / DreamBooth: 15 Training Images & Batch Size is 1

  • Fine Tuning / DreamBooth: 15 Training Images & Batch Size is 7

  • Fine Tuning / DreamBooth: 256 Training Images & Batch Size is 1

  • Fine Tuning / DreamBooth: 256 Training Images & Batch Size is 7

  • LoRA : 15 Training Images & Batch Size is 1

  • LoRA : 15 Training Images & Batch Size is 7

  • LoRA : 256 Training Images & Batch Size is 1

  • LoRA : 256 Training Images & Batch Size is 7

  • For each batch size 1 vs 7, a unique new learning rate (LR) is researched and best one used

  • Then compared all these checkpoints against each other very carefully and very thoroughly, and shared all findings and analysis  

  • If you want to convert FP16 checkpoints into FP8 with no visible quality loss and save 12 GB disk space per checkpoint, follow this public tutorial : https://www.patreon.com/posts/how-to-convert-114003125

• A new tutorial hopefully coming soon for this research and Fine Tuning / DreamBooth tutorial

• Current tutorials are as below:

  • Windows requirements CUDA, Python, cuDNN, and such : https://youtu.be/DrhUHnYfwC0

  • How to use SwarmUI : https://youtu.be/HKX8_F1Er_w

  • How to use FLUX on SwarmUI : https://youtu.be/bupRePUOA18

  • How to use Kohya GUI for FLUX training : https://youtu.be/nySGu12Y05k

  • How to use Kohya GUI for FLUX training on Cloud (RunPod and Massed Compute) : https://youtu.be/-uhL2nW7Ddw

• Moreover, I have shared new 28 realism and 37 stylization testing prompts.

• Furthermore, a very very detailed analysis having article written and all latest DreamBooth / Fine Tuning configs and LoRA configs are shared with Kohya GUI installers for both Windows, Runpod and Massed Compute.

• Check the images to see all shared files in the post.

• Additionally, I have shared full training entire logs that you can see each checkpoint took time. I have shared best checkpoints, their step count and took time according to being either LoRA, Fine Tuning or Batch size 1 or 7 or 15 images or 256 images, so a very detailed article regarding completed.
