New Krea 2 Turbo Distillation LoRA: 4-step generation with 13% reduced error gap

TimeTruth2490 · reddit · 2026-08-22

The author released a new 4-step distillation LoRA for Krea 2 Turbo, reducing the minimum usable step count from 8 to 4. The new checkpoint (chk00006000) uses an int8 teacher instead of NF4, achieving a 13% smaller held-out gap compared to the full 8-step teacher model. The project emphasizes a loop of train-assess-adapt, releasing checkpoints only when they are measurably better on a held-out set, rather than just training longer. The latest file acts as a rolling pointer to the newest weights for seamless updates.
