- Use in-place clamp/mul/add in postprocess normalization
- Use in-place clamp and Normalize in video transform pipeline
- Consolidate optimized channel permute functions in performance.py
- Use native permute() instead of einops rearrange in VAE encode/decode
- In-place wavelet decomposition and reconstruction operations
- Remove unused temporal_latent_blending function
Major refactor introducing:
- GlobalModelCache for cross-node model sharing with dynamic config updates
* Models cached by node ID, reused across different upscaler instances
* Config changes (torch.compile, BlockSwap, tiling) handled dynamically
* Runner templates cached when both models present
- Complete alpha channel processing rewrite
* New edge-guided alpha upscaling in src/core/alpha_upscaling.py
* Remove broken VAE RGBA adapter approach
* Alpha properly extracted, upscaled, and merged with RGB
- BlockSwap enhancements
* Support I/O-only swapping without transformer block offloading
* Separate memory reporting for I/O components vs transformer blocks
* Clearer logging of GPU vs CPU placement
* New is_blockswap_enabled() utility
- Memory management improvements
* Add release_tensor_collection() for batch tensor cleanup
* Proper tensor memory release throughout pipeline
* Better cleanup in postprocess phase
- Code quality and refactoring
* Extensive docstrings with type hints across all modules
* Generic _update_model_config() reduces code duplication
* Better function signatures and parameter documentation
* Improved separation of concerns in model_manager.py
* Clearer debug logging categories and messages
- Remove "Force move weights to device" in FP8CompatibleDiT forward() to avoid clash with blockswap - This was used for preserve_vram but will refactor preserve_vram in a separate commit
- Remove duplicate dtype detection in generation_step (now passed from generation_loop)
- Add device checks before CPU moves to avoid redundant operations
- Improve debug.log and debug.log_memory_state() formatting, content, and categories for better visibility
- Remove unused imports and excessive clear_memory() calls
- Clean up non-essential logs from always display
