Add --samples_per_plugin to specify explicit sampling counts · Pull Request #1138 · tensorflow/tensorboard

…ification of samples to keep per summary type.

Previously, TensorBoard always downsampled summaries for OOM reasons but some users wanted the ability to keep all their summaries of some types.

With this flag, --samples_per_plugin='histogram=2,images=0'
 keeps TensorBoard defaults for other summaries, restricts the number of histograms to 2, and keeps all image summaries.

Summary:
Before `--samples_per_plugin` existed, the only way to change the
sampling thresholds was to patch `application.py` manually. But the flag
has been the right way to do this since #1138, and manual patching has
been insufficient since the flag value was exposed to plugins in #3271.
There’s no need to discuss this implementation detail any more.
