what's the status of this one?

@MBaczun how ready is that?

[MBaczun]

The module is refactored and the benchmarks listed in the description have been updated.

I think this still needs to have XDT support in the module, this is something I spoke about with shyam, but if not then it's probably safe to merge after a rebase.

Also I am not certain if video analytics, tuning halving, and stacking training are the only benchmarks that use this module because I added a few more benchmarks since working on this. If all of the CI works then it should be fine though!

Long-term, once XDT is supported, I think all of the benchmarks should be using this module.

@shyamjesal what is your view on this? what would you suggest?

[shyamjesal]

I can add XDT support for this. This would not take much time.

Ok, thanks! Shyam, please take a lead on this
