XcodeBenchmark VS diffusionbee-stable-diffusion-ui

I’m a software developer as well and I ended up ordering a m3 max (still not received though). Main reasons against the m3 pro was the lesser number of performance cores compared to previous gens and slower memory bandwidth. Indeed, in this Xcode benchmark used by the Max Tech channel, the m3 pro compiled code slightly slower than the M1 Pro. Probably is a corner case but I think it’s worth to mention.

I found only one reasonable benchmark comparing compilation speed for large projects here. Does anyone have experience with these 2 machines for backend development with compiled languages?

Here's repo you should look at when buying a MacBook. Difference between M2 Pro and M2 Max is ~15%.

I'm not sure about AI/ML dataset training performance, but this XcodeBenchmark performance appears to be very comparable between the M2 and M2 Pro.

* LLaVA model: I'll add more documentation. You are right Llava could not generate images. For image generation I don't have immediate plans, but checkout these projects for local image generation.

Interesting, will check it out to see how it compares with https://diffusionbee.com which I am using for last few months for fun.

It depends on what you are planning to do. Stable diffusion works great locally on both the dell+linux and the mac laptop I tried it on. This one was easy to use while exploring models from huggingface: https://diffusionbee.com/

diffusion bee is the easiest app to use.

If you have a Mac, I highly recommend DiffusionBee. It’s an app you can install on your computer and use as much as you want (even offline) for free. The website has older downloads but if you go here you can get the latest beta with more features: https://github.com/divamgupta/diffusionbee-stable-diffusion-ui/releases

If you have a Mac, you can try this out too offline for free - https://diffusionbee.com (Go into the settings to make it the largest image size and you can also upscale it afterward - helpful for submitting larger artwork dimensions to distributors).
