Hi,

Suddently, I started getting additional progress bars while training. Here is the snapshot. I realized that I am getting train\_batch\_size (8 in this case) bars between every training step update progress bar. It only started from today. All these additional print statements are drastically slowing down the training and the notebook is getting hanged. Any idea how to fix this?

I have disabled tqdm in Trainer but the main tqdm is getting disabled but not these 8 additional bars between each step.

Thanks.

I met the same problem. Not in TPU, I tried in GPU or CPU separately, both were the same.

I downgraded ‘datasets’ from 1.12.0 to 1.11.0, problem was solved.
