Attention blocks are intensive to run. But with PyTorch's [`scaled_dot_product_attention`](../optimization/torch2.0#scaled-dot-product-attention) function, it is a lot more efficient. This function is used by default in Diffusers so you don't need to make any changes to the code.  
```python
from diffusers import StableDiffusionXLPipeline
import torch

pipe = StableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
"stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
).to("cuda")
