I get we are in the early stages of this new FLUX.1 based model; but the generation times are PAINFULLY slow!*

More of a gripe than a complaint as this service being available for free is unbelievable!

Anyone with any experience of the early days of the previous model who can give guidance on how soon to expect a gen-speed increase?

    yea the results are better but the slowness can get annoying for sure. i was really impressed with how fast the old one was i hope it will speed up in the future. i think with the old one 10% of the images were good but you could make them quickly. now its like 50% good but if you have bad luck or are too ambitious it will really make things annoying

    If this was the first time i’d used this site i’d probably never bother with it again - knowing how good it was previously makes these changes painful to take - if you’ve got any sense you’d just put it back to the site we all knew and loved.

    the previous one was also often slow…but the new one is really very slow - it takes 5 minutes for 8 pictures and to top it all off the result is not even close to what you want

    I’ve even looked for alternative sites, but they’re either paid, can’t handle NSFW content, or don’t generate furry characters.

    Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait until the developer improves the whole thing on their own, which could certainly take many weeks, if not several months

      The model is actually really fantastic, but you have to completely change the way you think about prompting. I’ve set up some base styles on my generator here: https://perchance.org/opentext2imagegenerator

      If you give that a go, and be very descriptive, writing in natural sentences; you’ll see some great results. My only minor gripe is with the speed of gens, not the model itself, it’s a definite improvement…

      Don’t get me wrong, it’s not terrible compared to some other models but compared to the previous SD 1.5 base, it takes about 10x longer.

      I’m sure it’ll get better with time. Either way, it’s better once you figure it out…
