Research direction

Search for the DynamicVRAM announcement and references to GGUFModelPatcher(ModelPatcher), then verify how custom GGUF loaders are described. Document that they do not use ModelPatcherDynamic, so GGUF UNet/CLIP retain legacy lowvram behavior unless a wrapper such as ComfyUI-MultiGPU handles placement; done when the announcement states this limitation clearly.

Feature Idea

DynamicVRAM announcement should document that custom GGUF loaders using GGUFModelPatcher(ModelPatcher) do not use ModelPatcherDynamic, so GGUF UNet/CLIP remain on legacy lowvram behavior unless a wrapper such as ComfyUI-MultiGPU handles placement.
