Signed with LMM PE Fund ($500M latest fund) but want to keep interviewing

Given that PE is a much smaller world than BB banking, would this move make sense? Getting pinged about stronger opps and getting the "grass is greener" mentality. I had thought my prospects were grim which is why I signed with the first offer I got, but realized that there are plenty of off cycle opportunities with really solid funds ($2bn+ latest fund). Have a few interviews lined up already and tempted to "up-tier" to a bigger fund if I land one.

Has anyone ever done this and what were the repercussions? Given the unpredictability of PE recruiting, I can't be the only one thinking of doing this..
