Lazy Loading Architecture

Faster boot, lower memory

ControlNet preprocessors and model components initialize only when needed, ensuring fast startup times

Unified Backend

Consistent behavior across interfaces

All interfaces share the same core ModelManager and inference engine for consistency

Device Agnostic

Works on any hardware

Automatic detection and optimization for CUDA, MPS (Apple Silicon), and CPU backends

Memory Optimization

Efficient resource usage

Attention slicing, gradient checkpointing, and torch compilation where beneficial

Four Unified Interfaces

All interfaces share the same core ModelManager and inference engine, ensuring consistent behavior across CLI commands, web requests, and direct Python usage.
