MODELBEAST 4b73b90625 BENCHMARKS: TRELLIS.2 local working — 289s/~4.8min gen, SOTA quality 
trellis_mac verified end-to-end: 18.4MB PBR GLB, clean coherent geometry on a
thin-ringed astrolabe (far beyond SF3D draft quality). ~15GB one-time download
then ~5min cached generation. All three local image->3D paths now live: sf3d
(fast draft), trellis_mac (SOTA local), plus fal cloud tier.

Raw Blame History

MODELBEAST Benchmarks (M3 Ultra, 256GB)

First measurements on this machine, recorded 2026-07-12. Fixtures are synthetic (Blender-rendered Suzanne), so quality numbers are not representative of real photography — these validate that the pipeline runs and how fast.

Scan track (fully validated, no gated weights)

Stage Input Settings Result
colmap_poses 48 frames @ 800×600 sequential matcher, global (GLOMAP) mapper, OPENCV, CPU SIFT 48/48 images registered, 1479 points, 0.60px mean reprojection error; global mapper step ~1.0s; full job a few seconds
brush_train above colmap_dataset 1500 steps, max_res 800, sh 2 ~30–60s wall, 465KB splat.ply, renders in the in-app SplatViewer

A full-quality brush_train run is 30000 steps (the default) — expect minutes, and a much crisper splat than the 1500-step preview above.

Image generation — local FLUX lineup (M3 Ultra, mflux/MLX, 1024×1024, validated 2026-07-13)

All five installed and generating. Warm = weights cached (the real per-image cost):

Model Steps Warm gen Peak MLX mem Gated? Best for
FLUX.2 Klein 4B 4 9.1s 18.0 GB no (Apache) volume / sprites — the default
FLUX.1 schnell-4bit 4 18.5s 19.1 GB no (community quant) fast draft, FLUX.1 look
FLUX.2 Klein 9B 4 18.7s 28.4 GB yes hero assets — best object accuracy of the whole lineup, cloud included
FLUX.1 schnell 4 20.4s 25.0 GB yes fast draft (Klein 9B beats it at same speed)
FLUX.1 dev 25 108.1s 25.1 GB yes cinematic mood / DoF when you can wait ~2 min

First-run downloads (one-time): schnell/dev ~31GB & ~16–19 min each, Klein 9B ~32GB, Klein 4B ~15GB. Believed among the first published M3 Ultra mflux FLUX.1/FLUX.2 numbers.

Sweet spot: Klein 9B. Same ~19s as schnell but far better object coherence → it dominates schnell. Klein 4B when speed matters (2× faster), dev only when you want the cinematic atmosphere. Note the hf_xet chunked downloader fails on these repos ("Unable to parse string as hex hash value") — the operator sets HF_HUB_DISABLE_XET=1 to force the reliable HTTP path.

First A/B (same prompt, 2026-07-12): FLUX.2 Klein 4B local (8s, $0) vs nano-banana via OpenRouter (google/gemini-2.5-flash-image, 7.7s, $0.0387 exact-billed). Klein: cleaner product-photo subject. nano-banana: richer scene dressing (books/inkwell/quill, dust motes) + finer engraving detail. Verdict: Klein is the volume workhorse; nano-banana wins on scene storytelling per prompt-adherence expectations (Elo 1154 vs ~1083).

Mesh-gen (local, validated 2026-07-13)

Operator Config Result
sf3d image → GLB, MPS, tex 1024 ~5s, ~9GB peak, 1.5MB GLB. Fast draft tier — good on solid objects, struggles on thin/open geometry. Needs OMP_NUM_THREADS=1+KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK (segfaults otherwise).
trellis_mac TRELLIS.2-4B, pipeline 1024, tex 2048, MPS 289s (~4.8 min) generation + 16s bake, 18.4MB GLB with PBR. SOTA-tier local quality — clean coherent geometry even on a thin-ringed astrolabe (dramatically better than SF3D). First run adds a one-time ~15GB download (~30 min); cached after. Needs HF_HUB_DISABLE_XET=1 + the OMP guards.
bg_remove_local RMBG-2.0, MPS, 1024 seconds; clean transparent cutout. Run before SF3D for a big geometry improvement. Note: keeps original RGB under alpha (upscale before cutout).

Local image→3D verdict: trellis_mac for hero assets (~5 min, SOTA), sf3d for fast drafts (~5s). Both free/offline; fal cloud (fal_trellis2 etc.) for on-demand SOTA without the local wait.

Mesh-gen — earlier install notes (superseded by the table above)

Operator Install Runtime status
sf3d venv + Metal texture_baker/uv_unwrapper kernels compiled OK; torch 2.13 MPS available Runs end-to-end; weights gated — stabilityai/stable-fast-3d returns GatedRepoError until the owner accepts the license + sets an HF token. Then expect seconds-to-a-minute on MPS.
trellis_mac setup.sh built .venv (py3.11) + mtl* Metal kernels; torch 2.13 MPS available Runs end-to-end; weights gated — needs HF access to facebook/dinov3-vitl16-pretrain-lvd1689m + briaai/RMBG-2.0. Expect ~3–5 min/gen once authed (M4 Pro reference; M3 Ultra should match or beat).
fal_* (trellis / trellis2 / hunyuan3d / rodin) none (API) Gated on FAL_KEY. Verified param surfaces; ~1s–1min server-side per fal docs.

To unblock the gated local operators

  1. Accept the model licenses on HuggingFace (one-time, usually instant):
  2. Either huggingface-cli login on the machine, or paste an HF token into Settings → "HuggingFace token" (injected as HF_TOKEN for the operators).

Method

Timings are wall-clock from the job runner (started_at→finished_at), single job at a time (gpu lane = 1). Re-run tests/smoke.sh for the framework regression suite (12 checks, ~30s).
