Large Language Models are powerful, but their memory and computational requirements can make deployment challenging. As part of my exploration of LLM optimization, I successfully worked on quantizing Qwen3-0.6B from FP32 to INT8 using Optimum-Quanto and PyTorch. ๐Ÿ”น Base Model: Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B ๐Ÿ”น Quโ€ฆ
