Siliconed 0.8
Check for Updates
- In the app menu, on demand only. Siliconed asks GitHub for its latest release and compares it
with the version running; if a newer one exists, it opens its page. Nothing is checked in the
background, nothing is installed for you.
Solvers (Developer Mode)
- Euler ancestral, DPM++ 2M and UniPC, besides Euler, on Z-Image Turbo and Qwen-Image-2.1: the
same steps, the same σ, another walk between them. Each one is checked against diffusers'
scheduler of the same name. Euler, the default, gives the same images as before, bit for bit. - Another image, the same time. UniPC may recompose a Qwen-Image-2.1 picture; the ancestral
solver may flatten a background. Edits keep image 1 under all four. Previews and sketches show
each solver's own estimate. In the rack, the history caption, the PNG andsilicontrol add|grid --solver.
The numbers
- Remeasured through the app, every render queued by
silicontrol: Z-Image Turbo 1024² in 82 to
85 s, Qwen-Image-2.1 in 118 s, an edit with one image in 212 s, with two in 285 s; 0 swap-out.
The README sets them next to the Draw Things engine on the same Mac.
Timings and memory are measured on a MacBook Pro M1 Pro with 16 GB.
