    This is a highly optimized, mixed-precision (MXFP8) quantized version of the Anima Base V1.0 model. It was created to provide a much lighter and faster generation experience without noticeably sacrificing visual fidelity.

    If you are running on a GPU with limited VRAM, or if you want to free up memory to run heavier ComfyUI workflows (like multiple ControlNets, upscale pipelines, or LoRAs), this checkpoint is for you.

    Performance & Stats vs Original Anima V10:

    • VRAM Usage: ~2.2 GB (Reduced from ~4.0 GB)

    • File Size: 2.15 GB (Reduced from ~4.0 GB)

    • Generation Speed: ~2.3 it/s (Increased from ~1.9 it/s)

    • Precision: Mixed-precision (mxfp8, int8, float8)

    Yes, on my RTX 5000 series it runs about 10-15% faster than INT8.

    Quick comparison from my tests with a turbo lora:
    • MXFP8: ~2.17 to 2.33 it/s (around 4.5s per generation)
    • INT8: ~1.95 to 2.08 it/s (around 4.8s per generation)
    • VRAM: Basically the same (~2.1 - 2.2 GB)

    @jancok It depends on your card. My old card only has INT8 acceleration, for instance; I think in descending order of oldness it's INT8, FP8, NV4, MXFP8 for acceleration support?

    @pedrodenovox549 hmm thats weird. mxfp8 is slower than int8 convrot in my rtx 5060 ti16G

    @pedrodenovox549 are you using forge neo or comfyui?

    @jancok ComfyUI

    @jancok I tested it using the same prompt and seed in the first run to load the model, and a second run without changing anything except the seed...

    I tested it on the Anima and Krea2 models.

    The Anima mxfp8 models performed better than the int8 models in all cases... With LORA, without LORA, with Turbo, and without Turbo.
