-文字搜图使用一个 CPU 后台任务建立 512 维图像索引，向量按模型与词表指纹保存在缩略图缓存中，每张约 552 字节。侧边栏会显示“文字索引”进度；更换模型文件前请先停止 Pixhelf。
+官方 Docker 镜像已经包含校验过的固定版本模型与词表，不会在容器启动后访问 Hugging Face。模型位于独立、可复现的压缩 OCI 基础层中：第一次 `docker pull` 会下载该层；以后更新 Pixhelf 时，只要模型版本不变，Docker 会按内容摘要复用本地层，只拉取新的应用层。amd64 与 arm64 镜像也共享同一份模型层。缩略图与搜索索引仍保存在 `pixhelf-cache` 卷中。
+
+直接运行独立二进制时仍会在首次启动后从 Hugging Face 的 OFA-Sys 官方仓库后台下载并校验模型（约 753 MB）。Web 服务无需等待模型，先以文件名搜索正常启动；下载支持断点续传和后台重试，后续启动复用缓存，无需重复下载。
+
+离线环境仍可手动提供包含 `model.safetensors` 和 `vocab.txt` 的目录。原来的模型文件路径也继续兼容；仅当词表不在模型同目录时，才需要额外配置 `PIXHELF_TEXT_SEARCH_VOCAB` 或 `--text-search-vocab`。
+
+文字搜图使用一个 CPU 后台任务建立 512 维图像索引，向量按模型与词表指纹保存在缩略图缓存中，每张约 552 字节。模型权重按需载入内存：已有完整向量缓存时启动不会载入，只有补建索引或执行新的文字查询时才载入；连续空闲 60 秒后自动释放，下次需要时再载入。侧边栏会显示“文字索引”进度；更换模型文件前请先停止 Pixhelf。
 
 ## 本地以图搜图
 
 以图搜图不需要模型：相似度完全在本机计算，综合比较图片的构图、亮度、色彩分布、边缘纹理和感知哈希，并过滤明显无关的结果。特征描述符会保存在缩略图缓存卷中；升级已有图库时会在后台自动补齐，之后重启无需重新计算。
+
+## 照片直方图与 EXIF
+
+在图片查看器中向下滚动即可查看 RGB/亮度直方图、文件大小与修改时间，以及拍摄时间、相机、镜头、快门、光圈、ISO、焦距等常用 EXIF 信息。数据仅在打开查看器时按需读取并缓存在内存中；直方图复用已有缩略图，不会在图库扫描阶段批量解码原图。
