Show each denoise method in the manual as a close-up
The manual's AI denoise section names the four methods and their measured times, and shows the lamp and railing of the ISO 8000 frame at 1:1 by each in place of the film and the before/after pair. The scene clicks each method and waits for that network's result: the repair now logs its own "learned denoise:" line first, so the wait matches the result's.

edges, blended where each is better. The cleanest skies and the sharpest

lettering, and the slowest.</li>

a little softer on hard edges, in about a third of the time.</li>

<li><code>Fast</code>: a smaller one, taught the same way. Visibly noisier at very high

installing waits a few minutes more while the graphics card prepares each
