Do You Need a New Learning Rate When You Change LoRA Rank? — The Two Regimes μA (2026) Splits, and the Limits of That Evidence
Two competing beliefs circulate in practice at the same time: that changing the rank in LoRA means you have to re-find the optimal learning rate, and that using 1/r scaling makes the learning rate independent of rank. Th
