to my experience, below 400 I started to lose some BLEU point slightly.
Another thing to tune is the score-setting when building table.
score-settings = "--GoodTuring --MinScore 2:0.001"
standard value is 0.0001
I did not notice any BLEU score decrease with 0.001
But might be not relevant with MMAPTS

Hi Vincent,

That definitely helps. I reran everything comparing the original 2000/2000 to your suggestion of 400/400. There isn't much difference for a single multi-threaded instance, but there's about a 30% speedup when using all single-threaded instances:

             pop limit & stack
procs/threads    2000      400
1x16             5.46     5.68
2x8              7.58     8.70
4x4              9.71    11.24
8x2             12.50    15.87
16x1            14.08    18.52

There wasn't any degradation to BLEU/TER/Meteor but this is just one data point and a fairly simple system. I would be curious to see how things work out in other users' systems.

Best,
Michael

    out of curiosity, what gain do you get with 400 for both stack and
    cube pruning ?

        Hi Vincent,

        I'm using cube pruning with the following options for all data
        points:

        [search-algorithm]
        1

        [cube-pruning-deterministic-search]
        true

        [cube-pruning-pop-limit]
        2000

        [stack]
        2000

        Best,
        Michael
