Install XFormers in one click and run Stable Diffusion at least 1.5x faster

We go over how to use the new easy-install process for the XFormers library with the new AUTOMATIC1111 webui. I achieved huge improvements in memory efficiency and speed using this.

XFormers is a library by facebook research which increases the efficiency of the attention function, which is used in many modern machine learning models, including Stable Diffusion.

stumbled here from the subreddit. Thanks! Video was clear and now i actually have CUDA and Xformers installed!

[lucretius]

Perfect! Awesome choice for a topic. Incredibly useful, thanks!

[slashkeyAI]

your videos are really tracking well with community needs and interests. thanks much

[VisionzX]

Great tutorial!
Was really straightforward in helping me understand this a bit more

This was amazing. Got it running on Cuda 11.8. Lightning fast compared to almost 2 months ago when I played around with it, before a web-ui. It is so much better now in every way. Subbed!

Holy crap! I have tried countless times according to the tutorial without success. You actually only added one command to make my Xformers run. You are so great!

Damn, I'm my second day playing with the SD, and it always complained about xformers, didnt even knew what it was, thanks for making it so fast and clear. Subscribed right away :) Good presentation as well. Cheers man.

Previous video you made is still valuable for people who want to learn how things work

This update came so quickly, everything in the AI world is moving so quickly, I love it! Thanks for the video.

Thank you so much! I tried every trick I could find to get xformers working. I finally uninstalled everything, reinstalled SD with your no-nonsense 2.0 guide and followed you here. THANK YOU.

DUDE!!!! Thank you so much, I can generate now native 2k images with 22.3 gig of vram used! before xformers it failed going over 24gig vram pretty quickly. This is amazing! LIKED & SUBSCRIBED, you explained everything very well, Thank you :)

[MarkOrez]

Very useful. Thank you ! One single stuff to change and it worked. Cheers. 👍

If you have trouble with finding the commandline args go to the webui-user file right click, edit you will find set commandline_args= and put in "--xformers" the seemed to work fine for me.

[Modioman]

Wow thank you so much this helped me immensely with adding the xformers and cuda.

[PeteShakur]

wicked, great stuff, dropped vram usage from 92% to 68% and CPU temps from 80s-90s to 70 - plus i just needed to add in the command line bit and install cuda, had the rest of the stuff installed! :)

[grandesmentes]

Thank you, savior. In fact, what makes the absolute difference in your videos is that, you don't even have the knowledge but explain why you are doing what you are doing at the moment.

[YELLERR]

Great video, cool to see other aussie proompters, btw you can just add --xformers and --reinstall-xformers in ur webui launch args, you need both of those commands

[DarkWillUser]

Thanks for totally looking up the info for my GPU for me right in the video! lol

[the.kleyko]

Thank you so much. This finally worked!

[victoryavar]

Great tutorial! Can you add the extra code on an already installed local SD?
