+# INT8 Model Loading - Technical Notes
+
+## Session Date: November 25, 2025
+
+---
+
+## Key Learnings
+
+### 0. New Budget-Friendly Nodes
+
+To keep legacy nodes untouched, all GPU budget controls now live in dedicated nodes:
+
+- **Loader:** `Hunyuan 3 Loader (INT8 Budget)` exposes the GPU budget slider and records reserve metadata.
+- **Loader (NF4):** `Hunyuan 3 Loader (NF4 Low VRAM+)` mirrors the same behavior for NF4 checkpoints.
+- **Generators:** `Hunyuan 3 Generate (Large Budget)` and `Hunyuan 3 Generate (Low VRAM Budget)` understand the loader metadata, implement smarter "smart" mode checks, and emit MemoryTracker telemetry in the node status.
+
+Use these new nodes whenever you want budget sliders or telemetry output; existing nodes behave exactly as before this change.
+
+### 1. INT8 Model Variants
+
+There are **TWO** different INT8 quantization variants for HunyuanImage-3:
+
+#### **INT8-Full** (60GB on disk → 96GB loaded)
+- Everything quantized to INT8 on disk
+- During loading, critical layers are **dequantized** back to bfloat16
+- Final size: ~96GB (60GB INT8 weights + 36GB dequantized critical layers)
+- Metadata: `"quantization_method": "bitsandbytes_int8_full"`
+
+#### **INT8-Selective** (96GB on disk → 130GB loaded)
+- Only transformer weights quantized to INT8
+- VAE, attention, and critical layers already stored as bfloat16 on disk
+- Final size: ~130GB (96GB on disk + 34GB loading overhead)
+- Metadata: `"quantization_method": "bitsandbytes_int8"` (not "full")
+
+**CRITICAL**: Both variants end up with the same critical layers in bfloat16 after loading. The difference is whether we're dequantizing (Full) or preserving (Selective).
+
+---
+
+### 2. Bitsandbytes Configuration Issues
+
+#### **The `llm_int8_enable_fp32_cpu_offload` Conflict**
+
+**Problem**: 
+```python
+quant_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(
+    load_in_8bit=True,
+    llm_int8_enable_fp32_cpu_offload=True,  # ❌ CONFLICTS with device_map="auto"
+)
+```
+
+When using `device_map="auto"` with `max_memory` constraints, bitsandbytes validation fails with:
+```
+ValueError: Some modules are dispatched on the CPU or the disk. Make sure you have enough GPU RAM...
+```
+
+**Solution**:
+```python
+quant_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(
+    load_in_8bit=True,
+    llm_int8_skip_modules=skip_modules,
+    llm_int8_enable_fp32_cpu_offload=False,  # ✅ Let device_map handle offload
+)
+
+load_kwargs = dict(
+    device_map="auto",
+    max_memory={0: target_vram, "cpu": "100GiB"},  # We control offload
+    quantization_config=quant_config,
+)
+```
+
+**Why**: `llm_int8_enable_fp32_cpu_offload=True` is incompatible with `device_map="auto"`. We manage CPU offload ourselves via `max_memory` constraints.
+
+---
+
+### 3. Critical Layers That MUST Stay Full Precision
+
+The following layers cause severe corruption (colorful noise artifacts) if quantized to INT8:
+
+```python
+skip_modules = [
+    # VAE/Autoencoder (image encoding/decoding)
+    "vae", "model.vae", "vae.decoder", "vae.encoder",
+    "autoencoder", "model.autoencoder", "autoencoder.decoder", "autoencoder.encoder",
+    
+    # Vision components
+    "vision_model", "model.vision_model",
+    "vision_aligner", "model.vision_aligner",
+    
+    # Embeddings and core layers
+    "timestep_emb", "model.timestep_emb",
+    "patch_embed", "model.patch_embed",
+    "time_embed", "model.time_embed",
+    "time_embed_2", "model.time_embed_2",
+    "final_layer", "model.final_layer",
+    
+    # Language model components
+    "model.wte", "wte",
+    "model.ln_f", "ln_f",
+    "lm_head", "model.lm_head",
+    
+    # Attention layers
+    "attn.q_proj", "attn.k_proj", "attn.v_proj", "attn.o_proj",
+    "attn.qkv_proj", "attn.out_proj",
+    "self_attn", "cross_attn",
+]
+```
+
+**Important**: These are **pattern matches** - any layer name containing these strings will be skipped.
+
+---
+
+### 4. Memory Management Strategy
+
+#### **Target: 55% GPU Usage**
+
+For a 96GB GPU:
+- **Target**: ~52GB on GPU (55% of total)
+- **Offloaded**: ~44GB to CPU (45% of model)
+- **Reserved**: ~43GB free VRAM for inference pulsing
+
+```python
+if torch.cuda.is_available():
+    free, total = torch.cuda.mem_get_info(0)
+    target_model_vram = int(total * 0.55)  # Use 55% for model
+    max_memory = {
+        0: target_model_vram,
+        "cpu": "100GiB"
+    }
+```
+
+#### **Why 55%?**
+- 96GB model on 96GB GPU leaves no headroom
+- Inference causes temporary VRAM spikes (up to 12GB per megapixel)
+- Without headroom: 99% VRAM usage → stalls/OOM
+- With 55% target: ~43GB free → smooth inference
+
+#### **GPU Budget Slider (Loaders & Generators)**
+
+- The budget slider now lives in `Hunyuan 3 Loader (NF4 Low VRAM+)` and `Hunyuan 3 Loader (INT8 Budget)`.
+- Set this to the VRAM you are comfortable dedicating to weights; anything beyond is auto-offloaded to CPU RAM.
+- Suggested starting points:
+    - 24GB GPUs → **18‑20GB** target
+    - 32GB GPUs → **26‑28GB** target
+    - 96GB GPUs → **52GB** (default)
+- Large/offload generators (`Hunyuan 3 Generate (Large Budget)` / `Low VRAM Budget`) also include an optional per-run override so you can experiment with different budgets without reloading the model.
+
+---
+
+### 5. Smart Mode Detection (Fixed)
+
+**Old "Stupid" Logic**: Tried to detect model type and predict requirements
+**New "Actually Smart" Logic**: Just check current VRAM state
+
+```python
+if offload_mode == "smart" and torch.cuda.is_available():
+    megapixels = (width * height) / 1_000_000
+    free_bytes, total_bytes = torch.cuda.mem_get_info(0)
+    free_gb = free_bytes / 1024**3
+    allocated_gb = (total_bytes - free_bytes) / 1024**3
+    percent_used = (allocated_gb / total_gb) * 100
+    
+    loader_reserve_gb = getattr(model, '_loader_reserve_gb', 0)
+    inference_requirement = (megapixels * 12.0) + 5.0 + loader_reserve_gb
+    
+    # Three simple rules:
+    if free_gb < 25.0:  # Less than 25GB free (allows 5090/4090 to skip)
+        should_offload = True
+    elif percent_used > 70.0:  # Using more than 70% of GPU
+        should_offload = True
+    elif free_gb < inference_requirement:  # Not enough for inference
+        should_offload = True
+```
+
+**Key Insight**: Model is already loaded - don't try to predict model size, just check if there's enough room for inference.
+
+---
+
+### 6. Terminology Clarification
+
+#### **"Keep in bfloat16" vs "Dequantize to bfloat16"**
+
+**Wrong terminology** (what we kept saying):
+
+- "Keep VAE in bfloat16"
+
+**Correct terminology**:
+
+- **INT8-Full**: "Dequantize/expand VAE from INT8 → bfloat16"
+- **INT8-Selective**: "Preserve VAE as bfloat16 (already full precision)"
+
+The `llm_int8_skip_modules` parameter does **different things** depending on what's on disk:
+
+1. If layer is INT8 on disk → causes **dequantization** to bfloat16
+2. If layer is bfloat16 on disk → **prevents quantization**, keeps as-is
+
+Same parameter, different behavior based on checkpoint content.
+
+---
+
+### 7. Performance Expectations
+
+**Target**: INT8 should be **2-3x faster** than BF16
+
+- BF16: ~6 minutes for 1MP image
+- INT8 Expected: ~2-3 minutes
+- INT8 Reality (before fixes): 12 minutes (2x SLOWER!)
+
+**Why it was slow**:
+
+- Loading 81GB to GPU (85% usage)
+- During inference: 99% VRAM → constant swapping/stalls
+- OOM after a few minutes
+
+**After fixes** (expected):
+
+- Loading ~52GB to GPU (55% usage)
+- During inference: ~70-80% VRAM (room to pulse)
+- Should hit 2-3x speedup target
+
+---
+
+### 8. Debug Verification Added
+
+Added logging to verify which layers are actually in which dtype:
+
+```python
+logger.info("Verifying layer dtypes after load:")
+dtype_summary = {}
+for name, param in model.named_parameters():
+    dtype = str(param.dtype)
+    if any(key in name.lower() for key in ['vae', 'autoencoder', 'vision', 'embed', 'final', 'lm_head', 'wte', 'ln_f']):
+        dtype_summary[dtype].append(name)
+
+for dtype, layers in dtype_summary.items():
+    logger.info(f"  {dtype}: {len(layers)} layers")
+    logger.info(f"    Examples: {', '.join(layers[:3])}")
+```
+
+This shows if skip_modules patterns are actually matching the real layer names.
+
+---
+
+### 9. Common Errors & Solutions
+
+#### **Error**: "Cannot copy out of meta tensor"
+
+**Cause**: Model already has meta tensors, trying to apply cpu_offload() again
+**Solution**: Check for `has_meta` flag before applying cpu_offload
+
+#### **Error**: "Some modules are dispatched on the CPU..."
+
+**Cause**: `llm_int8_enable_fp32_cpu_offload=True` with `device_map="auto"`
+**Solution**: Set to `False`, manage offload via max_memory
+
+#### **Error**: VAE corruption (colorful noise)
+
+**Cause**: VAE layers still quantized to INT8
+**Solution**: Verify skip_modules patterns match actual layer names, check dtype verification log
+
+#### **Error**: 99% VRAM usage, OOM
+
+**Cause**: Model loaded too close to GPU limit (81GB on 96GB GPU)
+**Solution**: Use max_memory to target 55% GPU usage
+
+---
+
+### 10. Telemetry & Status Output
+
+- All generate nodes (standard, large/offload, low VRAM) now track **peak GPU VRAM** and **system RAM** for every run.
+- The values are logged and appended to the node's status string, e.g. `... | Peak VRAM 27.8GB | Peak RAM 42.1GB`.
+- Use those stats to tune the GPU budget slider—keep peaks ~10GB under your physical limit to leave room for inference spikes.
+
+---
+
+## Optimal Device Map (Manual Configuration)
+
+If you want to manually control layer placement instead of using `device_map="auto"`, here's a recommended optimal mapping for 96GB GPU:
+
+```python
+optimal_device_map = {
+    # Critical layers on GPU (must be fast)
+    "vision_model": 0,
+    "vision_aligner": 0,
+    "timestep_emb": 0,
+    "patch_embed": 0,
+    "time_embed": 0,
+    "final_layer": 0,
+    "time_embed_2": 0,
+    "model.wte": 0,
+    "model.ln_f": 0,
+    "lm_head": 0,
+    
+    # First 6 transformer layers on GPU
+    "model.layers.0": 0,
+    "model.layers.1": 0,
+    "model.layers.2": 0,
+    "model.layers.3": 0,
+    "model.layers.4": 0,
+    "model.layers.5": 0,
+    
+    # Remaining layers offloaded to CPU
+    "model.layers.6": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.7": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.8": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.9": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.10": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.11": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.12": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.13": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.14": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.15": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.16": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.17": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.18": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.19": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.20": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.21": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.22": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.23": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.25": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.26": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.27": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.28": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.29": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.30": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.31": "cpu",
+    "model.layers.32": "cpu",
+}
+```
+
+**Note**: This keeps critical components and first 6 transformer layers on GPU, offloading the bulk of transformer layers to CPU. This provides good balance between speed and VRAM usage.

+> 🆕 **Budget/Telemetry Nodes**: New loader/generator variants keep the legacy nodes untouched while exposing GPU budget sliders, smarter "smart" mode logic, and MemoryTracker telemetry in the node status. Mix and match them only if you need the extra controls; existing workflows can stay on the classic nodes.
+
+### INT8 Budget Workflow Controls
+
+When using the **Hunyuan 3 Loader (INT8 Budget)** + **Hunyuan 3 Generate (Large Budget)** path (recommended for 96 GB RTX 6000 Pro / similar cards), keep these controls in mind:
+
+- `reserve_memory_gb` (loader): Amount of VRAM the loader leaves free for inference overhead. Set to ~20 GB for 1.5–2 MP work; increase when targeting 4K+ so Smart mode has headroom without forcing CPU offload.
+- `gpu_memory_target_gb` (loader): How much VRAM the INT8 weights are allowed to occupy. 80 GB is a good sweet spot on 96 GB GPUs. Lower values keep more VRAM free but may require CPU spillover during load.
+- `offload_mode` (Large Budget generator):
+  - `smart` (default) reads the loader’s reserve/budget metadata, estimates per-megapixel cost (~15 GB/MP + 6 GB), and only enables accelerate CPU offload when VRAM is critically low.
+  - `disabled` forces fully-on-GPU sampling (fastest) – use this for ≤2 MP jobs when you already fit in VRAM.
+  - `always` moves the model into accelerate offload before sampling. Only select this for extreme resolutions where you expect to exceed available VRAM; otherwise it slows INT8 inference to CPU speeds.
+- `keep_model_loaded` (Large Budget generator): When `False`, the node calls the same cache-clearing logic as **Hunyuan 3 Unload** after a run, freeing the INT8 weights from VRAM/RAM. Leave it `True` for iterative workflows to avoid reload times.
+- `gpu_budget_gb` override (Large Budget generator): Temporarily overrides the loader’s `_loader_gpu_budget_gb` value for Smart-mode math without remapping tensors. Set it if you want Smart mode to assume a different baseline (e.g., 65 GB) without reloading the model; leave at `-1` to use the loader’s recorded budget.
+
+These generator settings never remap the model by themselves—they only influence whether accelerate offload engages and whether we clear the cached model afterward. Adjust the loader slider first (20 GB reserve / 80 GB target recommended), then use the generator controls to decide when to keep models in memory or trigger CPU offload for very large renders.
