PrunaAI's 6-step LoRA adapters cut Qwen-Image-2.1 generation ~5x, dropping the upsampling step
sdiazlor · reddit · 2026-10-28
PrunaAI published a set of 6-step LoRA adapters for Qwen-Image-2.1 (including a ComfyUI version), cutting image generation/editing from 40 steps to 6, roughly 5x faster. Two variants: 6-steps preserves inputs when editing; 6-steps-upsampled improves visual quality and is the first distillation that removes the separate prompt-upsampling step, saving 41–80 seconds depending on prompt style.
The LoRA adapters load directly on top of Qwen-Image-2.1, leaving the pipeline unchanged. Available on Hugging Face as PrunaAI/P-Q-Image-2.1 and P-Q-Image-2.1-Comfy.
