8 GB GPU, 262K context 3.5 BPW Qwen-Flash-Next Coder 70 T/s using llama.cpp

The methodology Qwen-Flash-Next has n-gram, MOE packing above its weight but it's still 6B active params. We exploit this by keeping most MOEs in RAM (Smallest MOEs go in VRAM for speedup) and n-gram on disk - ensure you put the model on your fastest SSD. 8 GB VRAM, 24 GB RAM cost. You can run this…
