[Note: Unzip the download to get the GGUF. Civit doesn't support it natively, hence this workaround]Flux1.D merged in Flux1.S. It can generate good-quality images (better than Schnell) with just 4 steps, and the quality further improves with more steps, while consuming a very low amount of VRAM. Q_4_0 can produce 1024x1024 images in 45 seconds on my 11GB 1080ti, while using around 6.5 Gigs of VRAM.It can be used in ComfyUI with this <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://github.com/city96/ComfyUI-GGUF">custom node</a> or with Forge UI.

The additional inference cost is quite small if the model fits in the GPU.

But you might need to increase the number of steps a little (8-10).<h2 id="updates-qbnx1byoz">Updates</h2>V2: I created the original (v1) from an fp8 checkpoint. Due to double quantization, it accumulated more errors. So I found that v1 couldn't produce sharp images. For v2 I manually merged the bf16 Dev and Schnell checkpoints and then made the GGUF. This version can produce more details and much crisper results.All the license terms associated with Flux.1 Dev and Flux.1 Schnell apply.PS: Credit goes to <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/user/jice">jice</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="http://comfy.org">comfy.org</a> for the merge recipe.

GGUF: FastFlux (Flux.1-Schnell Merged with Flux.1-Dev)

Q4_1: slightly bigger, but should give slightly better quality than Q4_0
