The current SMC sampler only logs progress (and beta schedule) of the first worker. This is possibly because the underlying
fastprogress
does not support multiple progress bars in parallel, see AnswerDotAI/fastprogress#80 and AnswerDotAI/fastprogress#39.This is not an issue is all processes work roughly at the same speed. However that might not always be the case, especially if one of the processes are sampling in a region of parameter space that cause slow likelihood evaluation. The first process, which is logging, might then reach 100% long before the last process. Real example: ODEs with varying stiffness depending on the parameter values. Ask me how I know 😆
It would therefore be handy to:
