Hi @ericspod, I've noticed that the file downloads have been failing for several days. Do you have any insights into what's happening? Should we consider skipping these tests for now until the issue is resolved?

[ericspod]

Hi @Warvito we think the problem is that your repo uses Google Drive data which is rate limiting the number of downloads. The links work for me through a browser but our CICD tests are hitting limits now. Would it be possible to move your model to HuggingFace and update the links in the repo to download files from there? We think that HuggingFace is a good place to store models and datasets and are in the process of moving our CICD data over. This might be a better approach overall rather that torchhub, we can think about changing the perceptual loss definition to do so. We've been putting up models from the zoo and elsewhere here, for example. Thanks!
