>use case
I think that's the problem here.
with https://slow.pics/c/uOKye4pJ I can see that Waifu sucks at smaller images sure.

So far I only used it to make already big images(1500x1500) even bigger. (most of the time 6x-8x scaling)
I tested some of the ESRGAN models and for that use case and it doesn't look like the models are that much different from Waifu.
I just wish there were denoise options similiar to waifu in chaiNNer.

Anyway thanks for the recommendation.
