Users of Stable Diffusion are encountering a performance issue where enabling INT8 precision, which typically doubles generation speed, causes a significant slowdown when LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) is also applied. This negates the speed benefits of INT8, with generation times becoming comparable to or even slower than standard FP8 precision when LoRAs are in use. The problem has been reported by multiple users on platforms like Reddit, suggesting a widespread compatibility or optimization challenge within the Stable Diffusion ecosystem. AI
IMPACT Potential slowdown in AI image generation workflows for users employing INT8 precision with LoRA, requiring further optimization.
RANK_REASON User-reported issue with a specific feature (INT8 precision) in an existing AI tool (Stable Diffusion) when combined with another feature (LoRA).
