…()/evict() API
Replaces the per-model `{part}_to(device)` methods across all model classes,
plus scattered call sites in dataLoader/modelSetup/modelSampler/GenericTrainer,
with generic BaseModel methods driven by the existing ModelType.model_parts()
registry: materialize(*parts), evict(*parts), and materialize_only(*parts)
(evict everything else, then materialize the given parts - the swap-in/swap-out
pattern used throughout the Samplers and text-caching setup). eval() and
adapters() are likewise made concrete on BaseModel instead of hand-written per
model. Models whose component names diverge (Wuerstchen) or that have
components outside model_parts() (SD's depth_estimator, Anima's
text_conditioner) override the relevant methods directly.
Also fixes multi-TE samplers (Flux/SD3/SDXL/HiDream/HunyuanVideo) that
previously evicted all but the first text encoder and ran encode_text with
the rest still on temp_device.

Extracts the transformer / text-encoder / vae loading logic duplicated across the per-model loaders into shared helpers on HFModelLoaderMixin: - _load_transformer: the from_single_file(..., quantization_config= GGUFQuantizationConfig(...)) / else-load-from-repo pattern for loading an optionally-GGUF-quantized transformer checkpoint, previously duplicated across 9 loaders. - _load_text_encoder: thin wrapper over _load_transformers_sub_module giving every loader one call site for the load-on-demand streaming branch to hook. - _load_vae: collapses the duplicated "separate vae repo overrides the base vae subfolder" branch across 15 diffusers-path loaders. Flux's separate-transformer/pipeline path and HunyuanVideo's ckpt path use structurally different else-branches and were left untouched, as were the safetensors/pipeline-sourced vae branches. Also fixes Ideogram's VAE Override being silently ignored (model_names. vae_model was never read by the loader) and a HiDream text_encoder_4 override regression introduced while switching to _load_text_encoder (the override repo holds text_encoder_4 at its root with no subfolder). Pure refactor otherwise, no behavior change. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
On CUDA, the layer-offload cache now uses one cache tensor instead of the multi-chunk split: a large cuda allocation is page-mapped, so one buffer packs with no inter-chunk tail waste, and the arena is filled per-layer from the CPU so no full resident source coexists with it. The host/pinned cache keeps the lazy multi-chunk split (its peak-doubling justification is host-only). Each layer-offload cache tensor, and each BaseModel component move, gets its own dedicated torch.cuda.MemPool, so the churny small tensors in the default pool can't wedge into a freed cache/component segment and strand it across an evict/reload cycle -- the cross-cycle fragmentation OOM on a tight budget. Pools are released once their tensors are freed. Shared MemPool helpers (create_mem_pool, mem_pool_context, supports_mem_pool) live in torch_util so both BaseModel._move_part and the offload conductor use the same wrapper. The alignment budget for the offload cache is sized from the actual offload-tensor count (TENSOR_ALIGNMENT_BYTES per tensor) instead of a fixed 4KB, since the unguarded ring wrap would otherwise silently overwrite live weights once a cache tensor holds enough tensors.

Squashed history of the mempool branch on top of PR Nerogar#1620 (Arena MemPool + single-buffer offload cache / materialize-evict API): eviction handling for multi-TE samplers, materialize_only_text_encoders() helper, generic BaseModel.eval()/adapters(), per-stem LoRA pooling, and review cleanups.

A part's 'train' flag defaults True even for parts the architecture can't train (e.g. the frozen text encoder on the newer transformer models), so taking it at face value misclassifies those parts as trained. Record the architecture-trainable parts per model type and expose part_trained_in_place() -- train and architecture-trainable and FINE_TUNE -- for the memory-management modes that must not silently discard in-place weight updates.

…load) Wires LayerOffloadConductor to materialize/evict layers directly from the checkpoint (set_disk_materialize, per-layer key_prefix) so disk-offload load-on-demand and the GPU/CPU layer split can be used together (issue Nerogar#69). A streamed sub-module is loaded as a meta skeleton; its real weights are streamed straight from the checkpoint to the compute device and quantized there on first use, so the full unquantized module never lands in system RAM. With cache_in_ram off the weights are discarded back to meta after each use and re-streamed on the next; with it on they stay resident in pinned RAM. Includes the unpublished part of the materialize()/evict() base work this depends on (the conductor.to split and the move to evicting only at save/teardown boundaries).

stream_module_from_checkpoint only joined its reader threads after the drain loop completed cleanly. A mid-stream failure (place() OOM, a reader error) unwound past the join, leaving up to STREAM_READER_THREADS daemon threads still executing inside safe_open().get_tensor(). When the run then tore down, force-killing a reader mid-mmap-read segfaulted on Windows (0xC0000005 inside torch_cpu, called from _safetensors_rust). Wrap the drain in try/finally: a stop Event lets readers break their stripe early, and the finally drains remaining items so a reader blocked on a full queue can post its done sentinel and exit before the unconditional join.
