[Fixed, too many files in ComfyUI output folder] Sometimes it seems to hang for a long time while *not* querying the AI

[Lendrick]

I run models locally, and I've noticed when watching koboldcpp's output log that sometimes the AI Roguelite just sits there for a long time even when it's not awaiting a response from kobold. Any idea what's going on with that?

[AI Roguelite: AI-generated RPG]

What action(s) usually results in this situation, and do you see koboldcpp output something shortly before the game responds?

[Lendrick]

Thanks for responding so quickly!

I'll keep an eye on it and see if there's any kind of pattern, then report back shortly.

It seems like it's happening after it calls ComfyUI to generate an image, even after generation is complete.

This may be related to something I've been noticing: the game seems to overestimate how long it'll take ComfyUI to finish a picture. When ComfyUI says it's done the game's progress bar is only about halfway, and the bar continues at the old pace. On closer look there seems to be a delay at the start where ComfyUI is a good way in by the time the game progress bar takes its first step. (I re-checked this just now with mods off btw.)

I had a whole lot of images in my comfy output directory, and comfy likes to number the files, which means it has to count them all. I tried moving the old images to a different folder, and I'll see if that makes a difference and report back.

That seems to have fixed it.

Gave it a shot and I'm afraid clearing out the output folder didn't help for me.
