reasoning
**Considering model parameters** This is a significant speedup! I need to think about whether I should ensure robustness if the group normalization weight and bias aren't set to default. I wonder if the evaluation might randomize all parameters too. Previously, I initialized `ModelNew` and then copied the `state_dict` from the original model. They likely share the same arguments and weights, but it’s important to clarify if that’s truly the case this time.
