Skip the queue and run the colab version instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xur1JeRjjOI

You can also run it on Replicate without a queue: https://replicate.com/stability-ai/stable-diffusion (set “init_image”)

It is super easy to install and use locally: clone repo, create conda env, run.

there are a number of forks and auxilliary repos available that add UI, reduce memory requirements, etc.
