Slow download speed

Complete RunPod newbie here. I'm using

Flux.1-Dev-ComfyUI by Camenduru

Flux.1-Dev-ComfyUI by Camenduru

template. However, its download speed is very slow, even the pod shows connection speed is 14836 Mbps. Are there something I missing? Is this normal? It takes nearly 10 mins to complete downloading. (I know Flux.1 Dev is 32GB and it's being hosted on HuggingFace.)

Solution

Okay, here's what I found.

I guess Docker

RUN

RUN

command runs slower(~8x) than just directly using

aria2c

aria2c

. So I created network volume, deployed empty(without model) ComfyUI image based on

ghcr.io/ai-dock/comfyui:latest

ghcr.io/ai-dock/comfyui:latest

, mount network volume to

/workspace/storage/stable_diffusion/models

/workspace/storage/stable_diffusion/models

, and manually downloaded models there.

After first download to network volume, I don't have to download 32GB model again.

You can't use network volume for model with template

camenduru/flux-runpod

camenduru/flux-runpod

, since Docker RUN forces download anyway.
