- The FP8 Qwen3-VL text encoder was constructed at the process fp32 default before the
dequantized bf16 weights are copied in. That ~8B-param fp32 scaffold peaks ~2x on host RAM
(loading FIRST, before the DiTs), so a 64 GB host can OOM. Build it at the target dtype under
set_default_dtype, mirroring the DiT loader; rotary inv_freq is still computed in explicit fp32.
- The auto-policy memory table listed the text encoder at 8.8 GB, its FP8 on-disk size, while the
DiTs were doubled to their bf16-resident sizes. The loader dequantizes the encoder to bf16 too
(~16.3 GB), so the entry understated the resident footprint by ~7.5 GB and could let the planner
pick a resident placement that OOMs. Size it as bf16-resident.
- Speed (regional compile, QKV fuse) and the attention backend only touched pipe.transformer, so
ideogram-4's second denoiser (unconditional_transformer, run every step for dual-branch CFG)
stayed eager/native while status reported the optimization as engaged. Iterate every denoiser DiT
(mirroring the offload path) so both experts are optimized. Guarded on attr presence, so single-DiT
families are unchanged.
