Stable Diffusion XL

This document showcases how to build and run the Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL) model on multiple GPUs using TensorRT-LLM. The community-contributed SDXL example in TRT-LLM is intended solely to showcase distributed inference for high-resolution use cases. For an optimized single-GPU setup in Stable Diffusion inference, please refer to the TensorRT DemoDiffusion example.

The design of distributed parallel inference comes from the CVPR 2024 paper DistriFusion from MIT HAN Lab. To simplify the implementation, all communications in this example are handled synchronously.

Usage

1. Build TensorRT Engine

# 1 gpu
python build_sdxl_unet.py --size 1024

# 2 gpus
mpirun -n 2 --allow-run-as-root python build_sdxl_unet.py --size 1024

2. Generate images using the engine

# 1 gpu
python run_sdxl.py --size 1024 --prompt "flowers, rabbit"

# 2 gpus
mpirun -n 2 --allow-run-as-root python run_sdxl.py --size 1024 --prompt "flowers, rabbit"
