Rather than using Numba (or other methods in Python), has anyone attempted to use Julia to do online training (I’ve done so offline)? The implementation I am thinking of would involve something like PythonCall. I am curious if speed benchmarks tests already exist here.
@elseml Has some experience with integrating Julia simulators, but I believe so far only in an offline context?
Hey everybody, I have indeed also only used it in an offline context so far. But it would be very interesting to hear about your experiences if you decide to try it out @kiante.

I am using online-training with Julia (as in, the heavy lifting of the generative model is done in Julia). I have seen some performance improvement but the main constraint is and was the training of the neural networks. I sadly didn’t do any “formal” benchmark testing.
One big advantage (for me) is that I can easily swap out different models.
