Question: validation set size, how many epochs to train?

[domcross]

What is the recommend size of the validation set for a data set with 22000 wav files?

How many epochs/iterations to train for a feasible result? How many epochs did you train the model used on the demo site?

@domcross Ideally, validation size is 5 % of your total data point but vocoder performance usually subjective to listening only so 5 to 10 number of files would be fine. I generally use 5 files as validation.
Make sure batch size should always 16, and training around 800k step (around 600 epochs ) starting giving good results.

Thanks.
