A ComfyUI node designed to pause processing based on specific GPU temperature thresholds or a defined duration. This tool enhances control over GPU usage during rendering tasks, ensuring optimal performance and preventing overheating.
- Monitors GPU temperature and allows for customizable wait times, enhancing system stability.
- Integrates seamlessly into existing ComfyUI workflows, specifically between KSampler and VAE Decode nodes.
- Built as a refined version of the gpucooldown node, offering improved functionality and reliability.
Context
This tool, known as HoldUp, serves as a specialized node within the ComfyUI framework. Its primary function is to introduce a delay based on the GPU's temperature or a set time, which helps manage the thermal performance of the GPU during intensive tasks.
Key Features & Benefits
HoldUp provides critical monitoring capabilities that allow users to set specific temperature thresholds, ensuring that the GPU does not overheat during operations. This feature is particularly useful for users who want to maintain system integrity while working with high-demand applications.
Advanced Functionalities
In addition to basic temperature monitoring, HoldUp allows users to specify a waiting period in seconds. This dual functionality enables more precise control over rendering workflows, as users can choose to delay processing until the GPU is within a safe operating range or simply wait for a predetermined time.
Practical Benefits
By incorporating HoldUp into their workflows, users can significantly enhance the stability and efficiency of their rendering processes in ComfyUI. This tool helps prevent potential hardware damage from overheating and optimizes the overall performance of the system during intensive tasks.
