Vibe code. To be reviewed.
If in dynamic mode, load GGUF as a QT.
Refactor this to support the new reconstructability protocol in the comfy core. This is needed for DynamicVRAM (to support legacy demotion for fallbacks). Add the logic for dynamic_vram construction. This is also needed for worksplit multi-gpu branch where the model is deep-cloned via reconstruction to put the model on two parallel GPUs.

Factor this out to a helper and implement the new core reconstruction protocol. Consider the mmap_released flag 1:1 with the underlying model such that it moves with the base model in model_override.

https://github.com/rattus128/ComfyUI-GGUF/tree/dynamic-vram Is this the same thing? |

This version definitely has a speed boost. However, if you're getting errors with the GGUF text encoder like me, try modifying the code as follows. Only the text encoder is operating the old way. it should serve as a good temporary workaround until the update. nodes.py line 206~ (False->True) |
That means it's already working. How much% did it save you |
|
without --disable-dynamic-vram with --disable-dynamic-vram |
|
are there other cli flags needed to enable it? im on v16.4, my startup logs
have:
DynamicVRAM support detected and enabled
but when model is loaded, i don't get the same as yours:
Model LTXAV prepared for dynamic VRAM loading. 16918MB Staged. 0

I'm using GGUF Wan2.2

The new dynamic VRAM system in the comfy-core enhances both RAM and VRAM management. Models are no longer offloader from VRAM to RAM (which has a habit of becoming swap) and are now loadable asynchronously on the sampler first iteration. This gives significant speedup to big multi-model workflows on low-resource systems. VRAM offloading is managed by demand offloading, such there is no need to have VRAM usage esitmates anymore.
The core has already upstreamed several of the resource saving features of GGUF in various forms.
So this implements a QuantizedTensor backend and subclasses the new ModelPatcherDynamic to bring GGUF+dynamic without needed custom ops.
The patcher subclass is needed to unhook the lora into on-the-fly. Otherwise its just load the state-dict into the new QuantizedTensor and go.
This brings the full feature-set of the core comfy caster to GGUF including, async-offload (and async primary load), pinned-memory and now the dynamic management.
There's some boilerplate to implement downgrade back to ModelPatcher. This is needed for things like torch compiler and hooks where Dynamic VRAM is TBD.
Still drafing and will post some more performance results. I am going to pull a RAM stick and go for some 16GB RAM flows with GGUF.
Example Test conditions:
WAN2.2 14B Q8 GGUF, 640x640x81f, RTX5090, Linux, 96GB, 2x Runs (disk caches warm with model first runs)
