## 1. Model Introduction
[Krea-2](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo) is a high-quality text-to-image diffusion model from [Krea](https://www.krea.ai/). It ships in two variants that share the same backbone and differ only in their sampling recipe:
- **[Krea-2-Turbo](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo)** - a distilled, few-step model that produces photorealistic images in only **8 inference steps** with no classifier-free guidance (`guidance_scale = 1.0`), ideal for fast and interactive generation.
- **[Krea-2-Raw](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Raw)** - the base (non-distilled) model that trades speed for maximum fidelity, using a longer schedule (~52 steps) with classifier-free guidance (`guidance_scale ≈ 4.5`).
Both variants are built on a single-stream MMDiT with a Qwen3-VL text encoder and the Qwen-Image VAE, and are distributed in the standard diffusers layout (a `model_index.json` plus sharded `transformer/`, `text_encoder/`, `vae/`, `tokenizer/`, and `scheduler/` folders). SGLang loads them **natively** - just point `--model-path` at the repo, no conversion step required.
**Key Features:**
- **Two variants, one pipeline**: switch between fast (Turbo) and high-fidelity (Raw) by changing only the model path and the sampling settings.
- **Photorealistic generation** at 1024x1024 and other resolutions.
- **Native diffusers loading**: components (DiT, text encoder, VAE, scheduler) are read straight from the repo's `model_index.json`.
For more details, see the [Krea-2-Turbo](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo) and [Krea-2-Raw](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Raw) HuggingFace pages.
## 2. SGLang-diffusion Installation
SGLang-diffusion offers multiple installation methods. You can choose the most suitable installation method based on your hardware platform and requirements.
Please refer to the [official SGLang-diffusion installation guide](https://docs.sglang.io/docs/sglang-diffusion/installation) for installation instructions.
## 3. Model Deployment
This section covers deploying Krea-2-Turbo for fast, high-quality image generation.
### 3.1 Basic Configuration
Krea-2-Turbo generates high-quality images in only 8 inference steps. Launch the server with:
```bash Command
sglang serve \
--model-path krea/Krea-2-Turbo \
--num-gpus 1 \
--port 30000
```
The step count and guidance scale are **request-time** settings (see [API Usage](#4-api-usage)); Krea-2-Turbo defaults to 8 steps with `guidance_scale = 1.0`.
### 3.2 Configuration Tips
Currently supported optimizations are listed [here](/docs/sglang-diffusion/compatibility_matrix).
- `--num-gpus`: Number of GPUs to use.
- Multi-GPU (tensor and/or sequence parallelism): see [Section 3.3](#3-3-multi-gpu-tensor-and-sequence-parallelism).
### 3.3 Multi-GPU: tensor and sequence parallelism
Krea-2 supports two multi-GPU axes that can be combined; `--num-gpus` must equal
`tp_size × ulysses_degree`.
- **Tensor parallelism (`--tp-size N`)** shards the DiT weights across GPUs, lowering
per-GPU VRAM. Krea-2's attention heads (48 query / 12 KV) and text heads (20) are
divisible by a tp size of 1, 2, or 4.
- **Sequence parallelism / Ulysses (`--ulysses-degree N`)** shards the image-token
sequence across GPUs while keeping the text prefix replicated. It does **not** shard
weights (per-GPU VRAM is unchanged), but its output is **bitwise-identical** to
single-GPU. It currently requires a single prompt per request (ragged/padded
multi-prompt batches under SP are not supported — use `--tp-size` for those).
```bash Command
# Tensor parallel (2 GPUs) — lowest per-GPU VRAM (DiT weights sharded)
sglang serve --model-path krea/Krea-2-Turbo --num-gpus 2 --tp-size 2 --port 30000
# Sequence parallel / Ulysses (2 GPUs) — output bitwise-identical to single-GPU
sglang serve --model-path krea/Krea-2-Turbo --num-gpus 2 --ulysses-degree 2 --port 30000
# Hybrid TP × SP (4 GPUs) — composes both axes
sglang serve --model-path krea/Krea-2-Turbo --num-gpus 4 --tp-size 2 --ulysses-degree 2 --port 30000
```
Measured on 2× H200 (Krea-2-Turbo, 8 steps, 1024×1024): `--tp-size 2` and
`--ulysses-degree 2` each give ~1.7× denoise speedup over single-GPU; the hybrid
TP=2 × SP=2 reaches ~2.8× on 4 GPUs. **Choosing:** on memory-constrained GPUs prefer
`--tp-size` (it shards the ~24 GB DiT, e.g. ~38 GB → ~27 GB per GPU on 2 GPUs); on
large-VRAM GPUs sequence parallelism is marginally faster and numerically exact, and
the two compose for the highest throughput.
## 4. API Usage
For complete API documentation, please refer to the [official API usage guide](/docs/sglang-diffusion/api/openai_api).
### 4.1 Generate an Image
Generate an image with the OpenAI-compatible images API:
```python Example
import base64
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(api_key="EMPTY", base_url="http://localhost:30000/v1")
response = client.images.generate(
model="krea/Krea-2-Turbo",
prompt="a red fox sitting in fresh snow, golden hour, photorealistic",
n=1,
response_format="b64_json",
)
# Save the generated image
image_bytes = base64.b64decode(response.data[0].b64_json)
with open("output.png", "wb") as f:
f.write(image_bytes)
```
You can also generate a single image from the command line:
```bash Command
sglang generate --model-path krea/Krea-2-Turbo \
--prompt "a red fox sitting in fresh snow, golden hour, photorealistic" \
--num-inference-steps 8 --height 1024 --width 1024 --save-output
```
### 4.2 Advanced Usage
#### 4.2.1 Cache-DiT Acceleration
SGLang integrates [Cache-DiT](https://github.com/vipshop/cache-dit), a caching acceleration engine for Diffusion Transformers (DiT), to speed up inference with minimal quality loss. Enable it by setting `SGLANG_CACHE_DIT_ENABLED=true`. For more details, see the SGLang Cache-DiT [documentation](/docs/sglang-diffusion/cache_dit).
Cache-DiT works for **both** Krea-2 variants with no extra configuration: SGLang tracks each request's classifier-free-guidance mode, so Krea-2-Turbo (no CFG, `guidance_scale = 1.0`) and Krea-2-Raw (CFG, `guidance_scale ≈ 4.5`) both cache correctly and automatically.
**Basic Usage**
```bash Command
SGLANG_CACHE_DIT_ENABLED=true sglang serve \
--model-path krea/Krea-2-Turbo \
--num-gpus 1 \
--port 30000
```
Measured per-image denoise speedup with the default cache settings (NVIDIA H200, 1024x1024, seed 0):
| Variant | Inference steps | Denoise (no cache → cache) | Speedup |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Krea-2-Turbo (no CFG) | 8 | 1.27s → 0.92s | ~1.4x |
| Krea-2-Raw (CFG 4.5) | 50 | 18.0s → 6.3s | ~2.9x |
Caching has the most headroom on Raw's longer schedule; the 8-step distilled Turbo has only a few cacheable steps after warmup.

#### 4.2.2 Memory & CPU Offload
Krea-2's DiT is ~24 GB in bf16 (the bulk of the model). On memory-constrained GPUs you can keep less of it resident:
- `--dit-layerwise-offload`: stream the DiT's transformer blocks layer-by-layer with async host-to-device prefetch overlap, so only a small working set stays on the GPU. This is the primary way to fit Krea-2 on a single consumer / 32 GB-class card, at a modest latency cost. Tune the memory/latency trade-off with `--dit-offload-prefetch-size` (`0.0` prefetches one layer for the lowest memory; larger values prefetch more layers -- faster but more memory).
- `--dit-cpu-offload`: keep the whole DiT in host memory. Combine it with `--dit-layerwise-offload` for the lowest peak GPU memory (weights stay on host and only the layers needed for the current step are brought on-device).
- `--text-encoder-cpu-offload`: offload the Qwen3-VL text encoder (it is idle during the denoise loop).
- `--vae-cpu-offload`: offload the VAE.
- `--pin-cpu-memory`: pin host memory for offload. Add only as a temporary workaround if you hit `CUDA error: invalid argument`.
On large-VRAM GPUs (e.g. H200), keep everything resident (offloads off) for the fastest latency.
