What are the hardware requirements to run SDXL?

In particular, how much VRAM is required?

This is assuming A1111 and not using --lowvram or --medvram.

It's hard to give precise figures, because there's always tricks to getting a little more or less but from my (admittedly limited) testing SDXL is significantly more demanding, and 10+GB of VRAM is probably going to be the minimum to run it. I don't remember exactly what I was doing but I run on an RTX A4500 card, and I managed to max out the 20GB of VRAM just with one SDXL process, where I can normally run a LORA training and 512x768 size images at the same time.
