4 edit cases at seed 42 on the V100, in the first picture's aspect: Qwen at its ~1 MP, H3 at 1 and 2 MP, and Pruna also at 4 MP the way its edit workflow does it (picture 1 scaled to 4 MP with lanczos first; Pruna's README says edits work best at 4 or 8 MP). The 2 MP cards come from the earlier run (same prompts and seed; times are whole warm jobs, not split). Each model set starts unloaded (ComfyUI /free, model files not in the OS cache), so its first job (outfit) includes loading everything from disk; that job then runs again warm. "Loading" = cold minus warm. "Diffusion" = the sampling steps alone, from ComfyUI's per-step progress events. RAM→VRAM is what still moves between system RAM and the GPU during a warm job (H3's 21 GB DiT and its text encoder don't both fit in 32 GB of VRAM). Click a picture to open the viewer: ← / → flips between versions, Z or click toggles 1:1 pixels.
