Yeah I did have a few false starts. Total time is more like 3 months vs 1 month for the final model. For small scale training I found it’s necessary to use a long lr warmup period, followed by constant lr.
There’s code on my GitHub (glid3)
edit: The architecture is identical to SD except I trained on 256px images with cosine noise schedule instead of linear. Using the cosine schedule makes the unet converge faster but can overfit if overtrained.
I keep wondering if using not only statistical noise but also deformations would help with the generation of deformable things - say human hands.

F222 does a little more coherent anatomy..not surprising given its background
I particularly interested in the image generation part (the DDPM/SGM)
