[FRIAM] Dabble with Stable Diffusion and like UV. and have questions

[glen]

I'm sure others are more well-informed than me. But because I'm partly responsible for the overwhelming number of tokens in the other thread, I feel a responsibility to reinforce your post.

My guess would be UV (being in Rust) is more naturally parallel than PIP. So parallel downloads, parallel caching, etc. But to exploit that, you'd have to also have a good way to manage package dependencies. E.g. if any 2 packages, and the dependency trees they're in, can be proven independent, than those trees can be downloaded and installed in parallel.

But, as I said, others may have better or more detailed ideas.
