New Muse Glimmer 30B destroyed Gemma 4 31B at making retro arcade games! We gave three models the same task and compared one-shot outputs. Muse Glimmer 30B, Gemma 4 31B and Qwen3.6 27B each ran locally on its own RTX 5090 with 32GB VRAM Tasks: - Space Invaders - Tetris - Arkanoid with multiball Outputs: Muse Glimmer 30B: 83.4K tokens, 17.7 min Qwen3.6 27B: 23.7K tokens, 5.4 min Gemma 4 31B: 17.8K tokens, 4.5 min Glimmer's games play like the originals. The alien fleet speeds up with every kill, the blocks lock and lines clear, the bricks break. Nothing froze or crashed. Gemma broke on Tetris, its bot piles every piece against the left wall until the stack hits the ceiling with half the well empty. Qwen finished all three but some of its Arkanoid balls phase straight through the paddle. Run Muse Glimmer yourself in Atomic Chat from day 0!

Gemma 4 31B is way too slow on my MacBook Pro M5 Max with 128GB of unified memory. 42 seconds to generate the first line of code. 21 tokens per second after that. Uses 26GB of memory when loaded. I sat there waiting nearly a minute before it even started writing code. The output? Actually decent. The lava lamp it generated looks good. But 42 seconds to first token is a dealbreaker. Claude Opus 4.7 starts generating in under 2 seconds. GPT 5.5 is instant. Good model. Unusable speed. Local inference on a $5,399 machine still can't match the cloud.

A single RTX 4090 (24 GB VRAM) can run the updated gemma 4 31B (dense) model with a 190,000 context window at 33 tokens/second. The VRAM barrier is dying. Google quietly updated Gemma 4, and Unsloth immediately compiled the new quants. I built llama.cpp from source on Ubuntu 22 to benchmark it. Google's stealth update 2 days ago enabled uniform Flash Attention 4 on Hopper to boost prefill and patched the chat template to improve tool calling. The agentic reasoning gains on the benchmark charts are massive: TB2 (Agents): +4.5% (to 25.8%) Tau2 (Telecom): +10.1% (to 62.7%) Running on Ubuntu 22, CUDA 13.0 with a single NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Here is the exact step by step benchmarking process with a massive 28k tokens prompt and the commands I used to squeeze out maximum context without killing my throughput: # 1. The Baseline (Unquantized KV Cache) I started with full GPU offload (-ngl 99) and pushed the context to 40k. llama.cpp flags: ./build/bin/llama-server -m gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -ngl 99 -c 40000 -fa on --port 8080 -v VRAM: 23.8 GB (maxed out on card) Throughput: Prefill: 2198.81 t/s | Decode: 35.77 t/s (with 28k tokens prompt) # 2. The CPU Split Trap I tried stretching to 80k context by offloading layers to the CPU (-ngl 52). llama.cpp flags: ./build/bin/llama-server -m gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -c 80000 -ngl 52 -fa on --port 8080 -v Throughput: Prefill: 1212.73 t/s | Decode: 5 t/s (with 28k tokens prompt) # 3. The KV Quantization Breakthrough Instead of spilling layers to the CPU, I kept the model fully on card (-ngl 99) but enabled 8-bit KV cache quantization to free up VRAM. flags: ./build/bin/llama-server -m gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -c 100000 --cache-type-k q8_0 --cache-type-v q8_0 -ngl 99 --port 8080 -v VRAM: 23.9 GB Throughput: Prefill: 2139.68 t/s | Decode: 32 t/s (with 28k tokens prompt) Result: 100k tokens of context on a single GPU with practically zero speed loss (and minimal intelligence loss). # 4. The Limit Test (Q4 KV Cache) To find the absolute breaking point, I dropped the KV cache to 4 bit (q4_0) and set -c 190000. flags: ./build/bin/llama-server -m gemma-4-31B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -c 190000 --cache-type-k q4_0 --cache-type-v q4_0 -ngl 99 --port 8080 -v VRAM: 23.8 GB Throughput: Prefill: 2206.66 t/s | Decode: 33 t/s (with 28k tokens prompt) (Note: Pushing it to 220k required dropping to -ngl 58 again, which immediately penalized decode down to 17 t/s). # The Tradeoff: For Max Reasoning: Keep your KV cache unquantized (f16). You get pristine reasoning but hit a strict 40k context ceiling. For Massive Document Retrieval: If you need to feed the model giant codebases, use --cache-type-k q4_0. Getting 190k context at 33 tokens/second on a consumer desktop with a 31b dense model is a cheat code. If you’re rocking a single 3090 or 4090 and slept on Gemma 4 earlier, this update is your cue to dust off the terminal. Hugging Face links to the Unsloth QAT quants are in the replies below.

Researchers found a way to make LLMs 8.5x faster! (without compromising accuracy) Speculative decoding is quite an effective way to address the single-token bottleneck in traditional LLM inference. A small "draft" model first generates the next several tokens, then the large model verifies all of them at once in a single forward pass. If a token at any position is wrong, you keep everything before it and restart from there. This never does worse than normal decoding. But current drafters in Speculative decoding still guess one token at a time. That makes the drafting step itself a bottleneck, capping real-world speedups at 2-3x. DFlash is a new technique that swaps the autoregressive drafter with a lightweight block diffusion model that guesses all tokens in one parallel shot. Drafting cost stays flat no matter how many tokens you speculate. On top of that, the drafter is conditioned on hidden features pulled from multiple layers of the target model and injected into every draft layer, so it makes significantly better guesses than a drafter working from scratch. In the side-by-side demo below, vanilla decoding runs at 48.5 tokens/sec. DFlash hits 415 tokens/sec on the same model, with zero quality loss. It's already integrated with vLLM, SGLang, and Transformers, with draft models on HuggingFace for several models like Qwen3, Qwen3.5, Llama 3.1, Kimi-K2.5, gpt-oss, and many more. I have shared the GitHub repo in the replies! KV caching is another must-know technique to boost LLM inference. I recently wrote an article about it. Read it below. 👉 Over to you: What use case are you working on that can benefit from this new technique?

Google's Gemma 4 26B A4B QAT hits 25+ tokens/sec and 320+ tokens/sec prefill on 8 GB VRAM (RTX 4060) + 16 GB RAM using TurboQuant Prefill just went from 200 → 320+ tok/s on the same 8GB card. 1.6x, no new hardware, no new quant, just a KV cache trick stacked on top of the Gemma 4 26B MoE setup from a few days ago. A few days ago I posted Gemma 4 26B A4B hitting 28 tok/s decode on 8GB VRAM using native MTP. prefill was stuck around 200 tok/s. fair callout by the community. So today I tested something I'd already been meaning to try: TheTom/llama-cpp-turboquant, the TurboQuant KV cache fork by Tom Turney (Tom Turney). (github link in the comments) thanks to him, the fork just got resynced to mainline, so MTP + TurboQuant now run together cleanly (I didnt see any meaningful gains by using MTP with this setup though but you can try). The flags (No MTP): -m gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -cnv -c 64000 --cache-type-k q8_0 --cache-type-v turbo3 Results on the same RTX 4060 8GB, tested with a 27k token prompt at 64k context loaded: Prefill: 200 tok/s → 320+ tok/s Decode: stayed above 25 tok/s (without MTP) Why it works: TurboQuant uses walsh hadamard rotation + polar quantization on the KV cache. keys are sensitive to compression, values aren't much, so it splits the difference: K stays at q8_0, V drops to turbo3 (~3 bits). bonus from the memory savings: same 8GB card can now stretch to 100-120k context with minimal decode penalty. It should now be snappier with any agent harness such as hermes agent without compromise on intelligence. If you're already running Gemma 4 on a small card, this stacks on top for free. Try --cache-type-k q8_0 --cache-type-v turbo3 on your setup and report back what your prefill/decode split looks like. unsloth model gguf and llama.cpp turboquant fork links in the comments. what's your prefill number before vs after?

HERMES AGENT NOW RUNS ON AN 8GB LAPTOP GPU JUST AS EASILY AS IT RUNS ON A 128GB MINI PC Nous Research shipped the official Hermes Agent Desktop App this week. Someone pointed it at a local llama server running on an RTX 4060 with 16GB system RAM. The integration took two minutes The model behind it: Gemma 4 26B MoE, QAT quantized, running on 8GB of VRAM. A 60k token prompt held a stable 20 tokens a second, flat, no slowdown as context grew. The flags were nothing exotic, just -cmoe -c 248000 on llama.cpp What that 8GB setup does out of the box: reads and patches its own code, runs it in a terminal, debugs errors, manages GitHub repos, spawns sub-agents for parallel work. Browses the web with vision to debug a UI. Schedules cron jobs in plain language. Connects to Notion, Google Workspace, Linear, and Obsidian to manage tasks on its own That's the same agent layer running on a Minisforum MS-S1 MAX with 128GB of unified memory, 96GB of it to the GPU, holding a 120B model at 56 tokens a second instead of a 26B model at 20. Same software, same tool execution, same zero API key. The only thing that changes between an $800 laptop and a $2,000 mini PC is how big a model you can afford to run underneath it The barrier to running a real autonomous agent locally didn't just drop. It dropped all the way down to hardware most people already own

🚀 OpenLLM 0.6 is out providing fast inference speed! Check out our video comparing #OpenLLM and #Ollama handling concurrent requests on the Llama 3 8B model. Ollama is ideal for local LLM deployment, but it is not designed for high concurrency scenarios essential for deployments in the cloud, powering applications with a large number of users. OpenLLM enables you to run any open-source model as OpenAI-compatible endpoints with just a single command. It supports a broad array of models like Llama 3, Mistral, and Qwen 2, including those fine-tuned with proprietary datasets and quantized versions. Ready to speed up your AI deployments? See the OpenLLM repo #BentoML #OpenSource

NVIDIA just removed one of the biggest friction points in Voice AI. PersonaPlex-7B is an open-source, full-duplex conversational model. Free, open source (MIT), with open model weights on Hugging Face 🤗 Links to repo and weights in 🧵↓ The traditional ASR → LLM → TTS pipeline forces rigid turn-taking. It’s efficient, but it never feels natural. PersonaPlex-7B changes that. This NVIDIA model can listen and speak at the same time. It runs directly on continuous audio tokens with a dual-stream transformer, generating text and audio in parallel instead of passing control between components. That unlocks: → instant back-channel responses → interruptions that feel human → real conversational rhythm Persona control is fully zero-shot! If you’re building low-latency assistants or support agents, this is a big step forward 🔥

🚨 do you understand what this AMD engineer just proved on camera watch the clip, it’s all there in one frame: llama.cpp slot logs on the left, nvitop showing 79% GPU util holding steady, localhost chat answering a 26k token prompt at 711 tok/s prompt eval, the gemma-4-12B Q4_K_XL gguf running clean. no cloud call, no api key, no censorship layer. for 2 years the rule was: frontier models need the cloud, local is too slow for real work, pay $200/month and wait for tokens. today a $1,800 lunch box runs qwen 3 235B at 11 tok/s with zero data leaving the room, and the same box runs gemma 4 12B with multi token prediction at 14+ tok/s on 30k context with no throttling. $440/month subscription stack: dead. $200/month claude tier: dead. local is too slow excuse: dead. one lunch box. $9/month in electricity. two moats buried in one week. the you need the cloud line wasn’t protecting users it was protecting the subscription.

A tricky LLM interview question: You're serving a reasoning model on vLLM, and it keeps running out of GPU memory on long traces. So you add KV cache compression and evict 90% of the cached tokens. VRAM usage stays as is and GPU still runs out of memory. Why? (answer below) Evicting 90% of the KV cache can free almost none of the memory it was using. This sounds counterintuitive, but it follows directly from how production servers store the cache today. The KV cache grows with every token a model generates. Each token appends its key and value vectors across every layer, and nothing is freed while generation continues. This is the dominant memory cost for reasoning models. If a 32K-token CoT caches ~32K tokens of KV vectors, a Qwen3-32B with 4-bit weights will run out-of-memory around 24K tokens on a 24GB GPU. One obvious solution is to keep the important tokens and drop the rest, since attention is sparse enough to allow it. But this does not solve the memory problem yet. The reason is paged attention, which is the memory manager behind vLLM and most production servers. Under the hood, it splits GPU memory into fixed physical blocks, each one holds the KV for about 16 tokens. This block returns to the allocator only when every slot inside it is empty. Since the eviction logic selects tokens by importance, and such tokens are scattered across blocks... ...so despite eviction, almost every block is left with at least some survivor tokens. For instance, if the logic evicts 14k of 16k tokens across 1,000 blocks, most likely every block will still have a token. This means the allocator frees almost nothing. Placing the new tokens into those freed slots is not ideal because it breaks the cache's layout. Say token 16,001 arrives, and it's placed in the slot the 40th token used to hold. The cache now reads position 38, then 16,001, then 41, so the cache is no longer in token order. Attention can still compute the right answer from that, but only if every slot now carries a separate note recording which position it actually holds. This introduces another bookkeeping cost that an in-order layout inherently avoids. So the cache is logically 90% smaller and still physically the same size. Many compression results miss this because they measure on pre-allocated contiguous tensors rather than a paged server. There's another problem. Eviction methods pick which tokens to keep by looking at the attention scores themselves (as expected). But fast attention kernels used in production, like FlashAttention, never save those scores. They compute attention in small pieces and throw the full score grid away as they go, which is also why they're fast. So the exact signal eviction methods need isn't available in memory. The workaround is to fall back to eager attention and build the full matrix, which gives up the speed FlashAttention was there to provide. NVIDIA published a method called TriAttention to solve both these problems. It never needs attention scores. Instead, it scores tokens from the geometry of the model's key and query vectors before RoPE is applied, where those vectors sit in stable clusters. For the memory problem, it runs a compaction pass every 128 decoded tokens. The surviving tokens slide forward to close the holes eviction creates, so whole blocks empty out and return to the allocator while the cache stays in token order. On long reasoning traces, the approach matches full-attention accuracy while decoding 2.5x faster and using 10.7x less KV memory. KV cache compression is a big infrastructure problem. The number that decides whether it works is the count of freed blocks, not the count of evicted tokens. You can find the NVIDIA write-up here: I wrote a first-principles breakdown of how the KV cache works. It walks through why the model stores keys and values at all, why the cache grows with every token, and a comparison of LLM generation speed with and without KV caching. Read it below.

Alibaba just released a coding model that hits 82 percent on SWE-Bench Verified. That is the highest score ever published for an open-source model. The weights are free. The license is Apache 2.0. You can run it today. The model is Qwen 4 Coder 32B. Here is what 82 percent on SWE-Bench Verified actually means. SWE-Bench Verified tests whether an AI can autonomously resolve real bugs pulled from real production GitHub repositories. Not synthetic exercises. Real open-source projects that real teams depend on. A model gets a bug report, reads the code, writes a fix, and either passes the test suite or it does not. At 82 percent, Qwen 4 Coder 32B resolves 82 out of every 100 real production bugs it is given. Without a human guiding it. On code it has never seen before. For comparison: Qwen 4 Coder 32B: 82 percent SWE-Bench Verified. Open source. Apache 2.0. Claude Fable 5: 80.3 percent SWE-Bench Pro. $10 input / $50 output per million tokens. Currently suspended. GPT-5.6 Sol: Competitive on Terminal-Bench. $5 input / $30 output per million tokens. An open-weight model that you can download and run for free just beat both of them on the benchmark designed to measure real software engineering capability. Here is the architecture. Qwen 4 Coder 32B is a 32 billion parameter dense model. Not a Mixture-of-Experts. Every parameter is active on every request. This matters for inference: a dense 32B model runs on 22 gigabytes of VRAM, which fits on a single high-end consumer GPU or a MacBook Pro with 64GB of unified memory. The smaller variant, Qwen 4 Coder 4B, runs at approximately 135 tokens per second on an M5 Max and fits inside 8 gigabytes of RAM. For a model with usable coding capability, that is a new bar for what fits in a single laptop. The training methodology continued Alibaba's approach of reinforcement learning on verifiable coding tasks. The model gets rewarded when its code passes tests. It gets penalized when it fails. Over millions of training steps, the model learns to write code that actually runs rather than code that looks plausible. License: Apache 2.0. Full commercial use. No attribution requirement. No revenue threshold. No monthly active user ceiling. Weights: Hugging Face, available today. Runs on: vLLM, Ollama, SGLang, and any standard GGUF-compatible inference engine. Qwen 4 32B also runs at approximately 135 tokens per second on an M5 Max chip, setting a new bar for what a sub-8GB model can do on Apple Silicon. The open-source coding model just beat the best closed-source model in the world on the benchmark designed to test whether AI can actually do software engineering. The weights are free. The subscription is optional. Source: Autom8Labs AI Insight July 2026, State of Open Source LLMs June 2026, Kunal Ganglani blog June 2026.

$🚨 I DON'T KNOW WHAT PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR! This guy just deployed a full GPU compute farm in a data center Not renting cloud instances, not paying per-token, just racks of consumer GPUs on warehouse shelving doing AI inference 24/7 The setup is wild: open-frame rigs with rows of white fans, PCIe riser cables, server-grade PSUs, and a PDU for power distribution. All mounted on red industrial shelving with raised-floor cooling underneath. It looks like a crypto mining op, because it probably was one Here's what's actually happening: > Ex-mining rigs are being redeployed for AI inference at scale > Each rig runs 6-8 GPUs on PCIe risers connected to a single motherboard > Fans pull cold air from the raised floor through the open frames > A PDU on each rack handles power distribution across all rigs > The whole thing runs in a colocation facility with cheap power rates The economics make sense: cloud GPU pricing runs $2-4/hr per card. Own the hardware, colocate it for $0.08-0.12/kWh, and you're printing compute at a fraction of the cost The crypto-to-AI pipeline is real. Same hardware, same facilities, same power contracts, completely different revenue model Bookmark this!$

✨ Managed to load my custom GPT script into an open source LLM called OpenHermes 2.5 Mistral 7B I used which makes it super easy to run open source LLMs on your laptop without any cloud servers or OpenAI or ChatGPT, just your own GPU in your MacBook! I use my MBP's M1 GPU! It runs maybe 2x-3x faster than ChatGPT4 and with about the same quality, no image gen of course cuz no DALL-E but with LCM (1 second img gen LoRa) that could happen in future If OpenAI implodes we might be able to continue after all thanks to open source! Nice to try this and see how accessible it is, here's how it looks: Thx for tips in replies 🐜 Max Rovensky MrDee@SOG🫡 Xenon John Shahawy @the_carlosdp Bilal KY @bigpt_dog

I added KV caching and INT8 KV quantization to our transformer inference, improving throughput by 35x. All of this was done from scratch in Rust + CUDA, on top of a homemade ML framework. On a 4-token prompt with 252 generated tokens: - Original: 0.76 tok/s - KV cache fp32: 27.21 tok/s - KV cache int8 (quantized): 27.29 tok/s Try it out yourself here: In practice: - KV caching gave us about a 35x end-to-end speedup - INT8 KV cache kept roughly the same speed as fp32 but cut KV cache memory by 3.78x FP32 cache used 4.5 MB in this run while the INT8 cache used only 1.19 MB This simple change to inference created a huge impact on performance. To learn more about the KV cache and other optimizations like this, check out the blog at
