1. HSDP can be combined with Ulysses-SP or CFG-Parallel. Tensor Parallel
and HSDP are not compatible; other HSDP combinations in the table
remain unverified.
2. TeaCache and Cache-DiT are not compatible.
3. CPU Offloading (Layerwise) and CPU Offloading (Module-wise) are not compatible.
4. CPU Offloading (Layerwise) supports single-card for now.
5. Using FP8-Quant as an example of qunatization methods.
4. The CPU Offloading (Layerwise) row describes local layerwise offload.
Multi-device Distributed Layerwise Offload has a separate topology and
compatibility matrix in the [CPU Offloading guide](diffusion/cpu_offload.md#distributed-layerwise-offloading).
5. The compatibility matrix uses FP8 as the representative quantization method.
6. Step Execution is not compatible with any diffusion cache backend. LoRA is supported, but each scheduled batch must use a single adapter (requests with different `lora_request` or `lora_scale` are kept in separate batches).
## Multi-Thread Weight Loading
Large diffusion models can take several minutes to load weights at startup (e.g., ~3 min for Qwen-Image, ~5 min for Wan2.2 I2V 14B). Multi-thread weight loading speeds up this process by loading safetensors shards in parallel using a thread pool instead of sequentially.
This optimization is **enabled by default** with 4 threads. No configuration is needed for the default behavior.
### Configuration
| Parameter | CLI Flag | Default | Description |
|-----------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `enable_multithread_weight_load` | `--disable-multithread-weight-load` | `True` (enabled) | Pass the flag to disable multi-thread loading |
| `num_weight_load_threads` | `--num-weight-load-threads` | `4` | Number of threads for parallel weight loading |
!!! tip
The default of 4 threads balances speed and disk I/O contention. On fast NVMe storage you may benefit from more threads (e.g., 8). On HDD or network storage, the default of 4 avoids saturating I/O bandwidth.
### Online Serving
```bash
# Default (multi-thread enabled, 4 threads)
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image --omni --port 8091
# Custom thread count
vllm serve Wan-AI/Wan2.2-I2V-A14B-Diffusers --omni --num-weight-load-threads 8
# Disable multi-thread loading
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image --omni --disable-multithread-weight-load
```
### Offline Inference
```python
from vllm_omni import Omni
# Default (multi-thread enabled, 4 threads)
omni = Omni(model="Qwen/Qwen-Image")
# Custom thread count
omni = Omni(
model="Wan-AI/Wan2.2-I2V-A14B-Diffusers",
num_weight_load_threads=8,
)
```
### Benchmarks
Measured on NVIDIA H800:
| Model | Before | After | Speedup |
|-------|--------|-------|---------|
| **Qwen/Qwen-Image** (53.7 GiB) | 168s | 27s | **6.2x** |
| **Wan-AI/Wan2.2-I2V-A14B-Diffusers** (64.5 GiB) | 283s | 56s | **5.1x** |
