Experimental global target bits‑per‑weight quantization of Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B and Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B.
Unlike standard llama.cpp quantizations that rely on fixed type heuristics (e.g., Q4_K_M), the Target BPW approach optimizes per-tensor precision where it matters the most, and produces high quality models that meet a precise global file size target.
Key Advantages:
- VRAM Maximization: Can generate high quality models sized exactly to fit hardware constraints (e.g., fitting the model into exactly 24GB VRAM).
- Data-Driven Precision: Quantization mix is determined by actual weight error sensitivity rather than hardcoded rules, often yielding better PPL/KLD size trade-offs.
Full benchmarks (PPL, KLD, ARC, GPQA, MMLU, etc.) and methodology in the models' cards.
