Memory needed
The weights of PixArt-XL-2-1024-MS take 20.3 GiB in float32. That is the floor for the memory the runtime has to place, spread over the devices it finds; activations come on top and grow with the size and length you ask for. A measured peak per device class is not published for this model yet.
Verify what you downloaded
Every download carries its SHA-256, and the file endpoint sends it in the X-NBX-SHA256 header. The container is 20.3 GiB (21,830,315,540 bytes).
