I need to upscale a ~1000px [portrait / landscape / product photo] by 4x–6x for a 300 DPI large-format print banner using ComfyUI.
Provide:
1) Optimal `Ultimate SD Upscale` + `ControlNet Tile` parameters to synthesize micro-textures without altering facial identity or text;
2) Exact `tile_padding`, `mask_blur`, and `seam_fix` settings to prevent grid seams;
3) Tiled VAE settings to avoid OOM on an 8GB VRAM GPU.
