Hello Moses team! I just wanted to ask you if it's normal for mert to run over 10 days on a multicore machine (2 processors with 8 cores - AMD Opteron) and 24GB of RAM? The bilingual corpora is about 400k sentences large, and I am running mert with the following command:
/moses/install/skrypty/scripts-20110516-1443/training/mert-moses.pl /moses/korpusy/ERP_test/lowercased/erp.lowercased.en /moses/korpusy/ERP_test/lowercased/erp.lowercased.pl /moses/install/moses/moses-cmd/src/moses /moses/install/model/moses.ini --working-dir /moses/korpusy/ERP_test/tuning/ --rootdir /moses/install/skrypty/scripts-20110516-1443/ --mertdir=/moses/install/moses/mert/ --decoder-flags "-v 0 -threads 16" >& /moses/korpusy/ERP_test/tuning/mert.out & Over these 10 days mert was able to run just 2 iterations and generated some moses.ini file with weights, but mert.out file shows that the process wasn't finished at all. It ended up suddenly and the last message is: Translating line 246297 in thread id Isuppose this is not normal mert behavior.. what am I doing wrong then? Thanks for any hint on the issue! Best regards Mariusz
