Q4_K_M

The usual 4-bit format, to see what smaller costs. Deleted once we had made the Q4_0 from it. Quantised here from IFM's BF16.

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.

How it was served

Unlabelled uses: draft model for K2-36B speculative decoding — 2026-09-09 23:37Z+ (--model-draft, failed on a renamed flag), and 2026-09-11 14:25Z (-md... --spec-type draft-simple --spec-draft-n-max 4 -c 32768 -np 1 -fa on -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 --reasoning-format deepseek). Never seated.

Decisions

  • Made with the Q8_0 as the board's standard 4-bit format.
  • Kept on 2026-09-11 15:14Z as a "drafter/MTP" file under Alan's "kill what you can disk wise, keep any q4_0 and drafters", after it had already been requantised to Q4_0.
  • Deleted 2026-09-12 08:04Z as a Q4_K_M "with a Q4_0 sibling".

What went wrong

  • Stale build stamp: run-log llama_build build 10893 on all five rows; the fork served them.
  • Contended speed number never re-measured.
  • First speculation attempt (2026-09-09) failed because --draft-max had been renamed.
