Quality of these LCM is not the best though
1 comments

True, not the best quality, but still fantastic results for a free model running locally on a laptop. Setting the steps between 10-20 seemed to produce the best results for me for realistic looking images. About one out of 10 images were useful for my test case of "a realistic photo of a german shepard riding a motorcycle through Tokyo at night"

But thats the point where regular diffusion (with the UniPC scheduler and FreeU) overtakes this in terms of quality.

Good point. I haven't done a lot of testing yet. I'm not sure if the default of 8 steps yields poorer results than 10-20 steps. Either way, it was fast on my M2 mac with 8 to 20 steps, much faster than other models I've played with.
