When loading the LoRA params (that were obtained on a quantized base model) and merging them into the base model, it is recommended to first dequantize the base model, merge the LoRA params into it, and then quantize the model again. This is because merging into 4bit quantized models can lead to some rounding errors. Below, we provide an end-to-end example:

First, load the original model and merge the LoRA params into it:

from diffusers import FluxPipeline 
import torch 

ckpt_id = "black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev"
pipeline = FluxPipeline.from_pretrained(

But TLDR is we split the models where possible and decouple the different stages of pipeline

from diffusers import AutoPipelineForText2Image
import torch
pipeline = AutoPipelineForText2Image.from_pretrained(
    "black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
).to("cuda")
pipeline.load_lora_weights("sayakpaul/yarn_art_lora_flux", weight_name="pytorch_lora_weights.safetensors")
image = pipeline("a puppy in a pond, yarn art style", guidance_scale=3.5, height=768).images[0]
image.save("yarn.png")

Running Flux under limited resources with Diffusers

Flux: https://blackforestlabs.ai/announcing-black-forest-labs/

The first resource even allows you to run the pipeline under 16GBs of GPU VRAM.
