What should this feature add?

Flashpack is a high-throughput Diffusers-compatible weight storage format. It improves load times by between 3x and 20x versus Safetensors. It currently supports quantized Diffusers models and may add a single-file offline distribution option in the future (https://github.com/fal-ai/flashpack/pull/32).

You may wish to consider defaulting to Flashpack in version 7 and providing Flashpack versions of the various Starter Models, with SDNQ for quantization as required. This would potentially improve Invoke's time-to-first-generation speed considerably, particularly on lower-end systems where such enhancements are most important.
