People on reddit have definitely pointed out that sageattention will speed up the renders.
And it's literally the first day. Someone will make a distilled 4-8 step LoRA and we're off to the races.
Edit: did a couple of 10 second long 864/480 i2v videos on my RTX Pro 6000: sageattention bumps them up 33%, that is to say, 140.89 seconds without sageattention becomes 105.69 with sageattention on (if using the KJ Sageattention node, "allow_compile" doesn't seem to affect it, just "sage_attention" set to "auto" works fine).
EasyCache also appears to work, but does affect quality, at least with the default threshold or even down to 0.10. Still, at 0.10 threshold the same render above, with sageattention, is down to 71.33 seconds, so depending on your use case the quality hit might be worth it. Also it seems that with EasyCache the video still matches the un-EasyCached video (with the same seed), so you could use it to do seed hunting.
Knowing r/StableDiffusion this will run on a Raspberry Pico's PIO core in real-time by end of this week.
