Runs marked unenforced were measured on a suite that requires constrained decoding, on a server shown not to apply the schema: mlx_lm accepts it and ignores it, and a few other servers and models break it. Those numbers do not measure what the suite is designed to measure. They are kept and labelled rather than deleted.

Where it came from

  • Repo / file: unsloth/GLM-4.7-Flash-GGUF / GLM-4.7-Flash-Q4_0.gguf, 17,216,676,192 B (HF listing; "17.22 GB"). Revision and sha256 not on record.
  • Command:

(six range streams.) Started 2026-09-12 10:11Z; 16 G on disk by 10:32Z.

  • Who asked: Alan, "Been watching videos on GLM 4.7 flash which is a very capable agentic coding model … I’m gonna have to take it for another spin"; "actually think glm 4.7 could be good?". Why Q4_0 is not stated at the time (reconstructed): the previous day's sweep had found Q4_0 the fast format on Metal.
  • GGUF header (read 2026-09-12 22:38Z): deepseek2, 47 layers, kv_heads 1, head_dim 576 → 99.9 KB/token f16, 25.0 KB/token q4_0.

How it was served

labeldates (UTC)binary and versionctx / -np / KV / -fa / --jinja / --reasoning-formatharness profilewhy this label exists

Script: glm_bench.sh, run by the "away tests" chain gated on the driver being idle. The run-log stamp 0.4.0-dev (build 10893, commit c32d1dabe) matches /props, so it is not stale. No seats held.

Decisions

  • Downloaded 2026-09-12 to test the agentic claim. The bench was held back while Alan was using our agents: "deliberately not queued — running it would contend with your session".
  • Not seated as coder 2026-09-12 22:53Z. Ornith-35B-A3B was chosen on toolcall 80.0 vs 38.3 and decode 55.3 vs 50.2. Alan had wanted it in DSH/opencode. Whether he tried it there is not on record.
  • Kept 2026-09-16 as the family's surviving build at 16 GB, after Alan's "Does that leave another GLM flash".
  • Deleted 2026-10-11 in sweep Tier B, "benched-once, abandoned" (a lab note). Alan: "nuke tiers a & b".
  • Not published (upstream file).

What went wrong

  • Wrong provenance in the sweep record. The sweep's restore script and a lab note say "glm-4.7-flash-gguf (16G): never benched as this GGUF build". It was benched as glm-4.7-flash-q40, 6 suites, 2026-09-12.
  • A RESTORE line that would pull the whole repo. The entry is hf download unsloth/GLM-4.7-Flash-GGUF, with no filename or --include.
  • -np left to the default: four slots at 32k total context, against the Q8_0 arm's single slot. Not a reported cause of any score, but the configuration differs from the Q8_0 rows it is compared with.
