lim_val_batches and val_check_interval behavior

[toskua]

Hi!

I want to know if validation is performed on the same sub-dataset when I use a combination of the lim_val_batches and val_check_interval flags.

For example, I'm setting lim_val_batches=10 and val_check_interval=1000. Since my training data is huge, validation is called multiple times. Now I want to know if validation is being done on the same 10 batches every time.

One solution is to simply make my validation set small and set lim_val_batches=1.0. But what if I don't want to do that?
