Both the [`~loaders.PeftAdapterMixin.set_adapters`] and [add_weighted_adapter](https://huggingface.co/docs/peft/package_reference/lora#peft.LoraModel.add_weighted_adapter) methods require loading the base model and the LoRA adapters separately which incurs some overhead. The [`~loaders.lora_base.LoraBaseMixin.fuse_lora`] method allows you to fuse the LoRA weights directly with the original weights of the underlying model. This way, you're only loading the model once which can increase inference and lower
