Got Easy Diffusion v4 working on Apple and Intel Macs. The performance difference ratio (vs ED v3) is similar to the ratio on Windows (with CUDA) and other deployment targets. So that indicates optimization opportunities in sd.cpp. It’s currently about 1.5x slower than diffusers-based Stable Diffusion.

In other news, easyinstaller is also out with its first release, which means that Easy Diffusion can now start shipping AppImage, Flatpak, rpm, deb, pkg, dmg etc for the different platforms. Instead of requiring Linux and Mac users to use the terminal to install and start Easy Diffusion. Will work on this soon.
