Budget governor
The governor watches what a run is spending while it spends it. If a run starts burning faster than expected, the governor can move the work down to a cheaper model, so the run keeps going instead of stopping outright.
Burning faster than expected
The model the run started on
A cheaper model
-
The work drops to a cheaper model part way through, and the run carries on from there.
-
Stopping the run outright. The downgrade happens instead of this.
Every downgrade leaves a line
The governor writes down each downgrade with the reason behind it. So when an answer comes back looking different from the one you expected, there is a line that explains it.
