Viggle released Qwen-Image-2.1-viggle-turbo v0.2.1 on Hugging Face, a DMD-distilled LoRA (rank 256/128) that runs text-to-image and instruction-based editing in 6 steps with no CFG — roughly 5x faster than the 40-step base with near-parity quality. Dense small text and complex edits remain the weak spots; ComfyUI nodes and workflows are included.
