# FLUX.2-klein Notes
|
|
|
|
## Current default assumptions
|
|
|
|
- Chris uses `FLUX.2-klein 9B`.
|
|
- Prefer `9B fp8` paths first.
|
|
- `GGUF` is not the default path unless it is the only strong or practical workflow route.
|
|
|
|
## Strong current source workflows
|
|
|
|
- Official Comfy `image edit` templates:
|
|
- `image-edit-9b-base`
|
|
- `image-edit-9b-distilled`
|
|
- `image-edit-4b-base`
|
|
- `image-edit-4b-distilled`
|
|
- Current best outpainting starter:
|
|
- `models/flux2klein/image-edit-4b-distilled/`
|
|
- Reason: official, current, and easiest first test even though Chris's main stack is `9B`
|
|
- Community Hugging Face workflow worth remembering:
|
|
- `models/flux2klein/community-gguf-kv-yarvixpa/`
|
|
- Interesting because of KV-cache / GGUF optimization ideas, not because it is the default path
|
|
- Community multi-reference donor worth watching:
|
|
- `models/flux2klein/geceff-flux2klein9b-multiref-3image/`
|
|
- Useful as a reference-control donor, but still too heavy and opinionated to replace the official `9B fp8` edit baseline by default
|
|
|
|
## Strong current heuristics
|
|
|
|
- Prefer official Comfy templates as the baseline unless a community workflow clearly improves something real.
|
|
- For `9B`, watch closely for text-encoder mismatches.
|
|
- Community `9B` optimization notes often revolve around:
|
|
- low-step usage
|
|
- `CFG=1`
|
|
- cleaner model/text-encoder pairing
|
|
- avoiding broken loader substitutions
|
|
- Keep the official `9B fp8` edit master as the default lane, then borrow from the multi-reference donor only when reference control is the real problem.
|
|
|
|
## Current weak areas
|
|
|
|
- We still do not have a clean, trusted, explicitly labeled `9B fp8 outpainting` community workflow import.
|
|
- Some public workflow pages mention outpainting but do not expose a trustworthy raw workflow asset.
|
|
- The multi-reference donor is promising, but it is not a clean maintainable replacement for the current edit master.
|
|
|
|
## Best current optimization direction
|
|
|
|
- Build future `optimized/image-edit/flux2klein-9b-master/` from the official `9B` edit template family first.
|
|
- Borrow only proven improvements from community sources:
|
|
- cleaner graph organization
|
|
- low-step settings when they are clearly validated
|
|
- better reference/outpaint control if portable
|
|
- Treat the `geceff` multi-reference pack as a donor for future reference-heavy variants, not as the first default promotion.
|
|
- The 2026-08-21 overnight `image-edit-9b-distilled` smoke was clean enough to keep the current `flux2klein-9b-fp8-edit-master` lane as the benchmark winner for now, but it still needs another night of proof before any broader claim of stability.
|
|
|
|
## What needs Monday proof
|
|
|
|
- Whether `9B distilled` or `9B base` is the better real default for edit/outpaint on Chris's setup
|
|
- Whether a `4B distilled` outpaint starter still beats `9B` in practical iteration speed enough to matter
|
|
- Which custom-node optimizations are real versus noise
