BLAKE3 has poor performance on spinning disks when parallelized. See https://github.com/BLAKE3-team/BLAKE3/issues/31
- Replace `skip_model_hash` setting with `hashing_algorithm`. Any algorithm we support is accepted.
- Add `random` algorithm: hashes a UUID with BLAKE3 to create a random "hash". Equivalent to the previous skip functionality.
- Add `blake3_single` algorithm: hashes on a single thread using BLAKE3, fixes the aforementioned performance issue
- Update model probe to accept the algorithm to hash with as an optional arg, defaulting to `blake3`
- Update all calls of the probe to use the app's configured hashing algorithm
- Update an external script that probes models
- Update tests
- Move ModelHash into its own module to avoid circuclar import issues
- No need for it to by a pydantic model. Just a class now.
- Remove ABC, it made it hard to understand what was going on as attributes were spread across the ABC and implementation. Also, there is no other implementation.
- Add tests
There is a breaking change in python 3.11 related to how enums with `str` as a mixin are formatted. This appears to have not caused any grief for us until now.
Re-jigger the discriminator setup to use `.value` so everything works on both python 3.10 and 3.11.
- Metadata is merged with the config. We can simplify the MM substantially and remove the handling for metadata.
- Per discussion, we don't have an ETA for frontend implementation of tags, and with the realization that the tags from CivitAI are largely useless, there's no reason to keep tags in the MM right now. When we are ready to implement tags on the frontend, we can refer back to the implementation here and use it if it supports the design.
- Fix all tests.
Sometimes, diffusers model components (tokenizer, unet, etc.) have multiple weights files in the same directory.
In this situation, we assume the files are different versions of the same weights. For example, we may have multiple
formats (`.bin`, `.safetensors`) with different precisions. When downloading model files, we want to select only
the best of these files for the requested format and precision/variant.
The previous logic assumed that each model weights file would have the same base filename, but this assumption was
not always true. The logic is revised score each file and choose the best scoring file, resulting in only a single
file being downloaded for each submodel/subdirectory.
