I've tried out SwarmUI coming from Automatic1111, and man the differences are incredible.
>Boot-up timeA1111: 30s
SwarmUI: 4s
>Model switching timeA1111: 4s
SwarmUI: instant
>Saving configA1111: 2s
SwarmUI: instant
>Changing folder in lora selectorA1111: 1s
SwarmUI: instant
>Image viewerA1111: full-screen but no zoom
SwarmUI: full-screen with zoom on scroll-wheel
>Image retentionA1111: if it's gone from the results view it's no longer interactable (without extensions).
SwarmUI: has a built-in history that brings the image back to the results with all the features available.
It's just made me realise how many little things in A1111 had a little delay to them. Individually you wouldn't notice but when everything goes from "I have to wait a moment before doing something else" to "instant" then you start becoming dramatically more efficient.
I'm not here to sell you on Swarm though this is just my experience. I'm sure the thing that would stop most people in their tracks from using Swarm in the first place is lack of user extensions (no ADetailer, no Latent Couple, but there is ControlNet). But for me personally, Swarm has enough feature already built-in to it that I don't need any extensions to have it be usable.
