FBCache reuses the transformer tail across denoise steps when the first block's residual barely changes -- a real speedup only when there are enough steps (it is why it is gated OFF for few-step distilled models like Z-Image-Turbo). Reports median latency, speedup, peak VRAM, and LPIPS vs the no-cache baseline.
