How does the random style-reference speedup work?
Midjourney states that combining Big Batch Draft Mode with random style references speeds up style-space browsing by 24 times. This generator leans on that same pairing, marrying draft throughput with sweeping random style samples.
Are there any official benchmarks for V8.2?

Will V8.2 cost me more?
