Beginner struggling with Flux 2: SamplerCustomAdvanced node causing 15-minute generation times

PhilGrimnir · reddit · 2026-08-28

A new Flux 2 user reports a severe performance bottleneck where text-to-image generation takes 900 seconds (15 minutes), with 99% of the time stuck on the SamplerCustomAdvanced node. The setup uses an XFX RX 6750 XT (12GB VRAM) and 16GB RAM, with VAE encoding disabled for text-only prompts. Other models like Z-Turbo do not exhibit this delay. The user seeks explanations for the slowdown and tips for workflow optimization.
