Beats Opus 4.7 Max (w/ Claude Code) on DeepSWE (42.2 vs 40). Looks like Qwen's 27B models continue to pack some punch. Unsloth's GGUF quants are up: https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen3.8-27B-GGUF

That's crazy, considering the massive size difference. But the small Qwen models are known for punching above their weight.

Is there any advantage to using the model from Unsloth compared with https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B-FP8 ?

q4km is about 48 tps on a 4090. my llama.cpp params are --flash-attn on --parallel 1 --load-mode mmap

With spec decode should easily get to >100tps

on my dual 3090s qwen 3.5 27b was running at around 110tps using the config from https://github.com/noonghunna/club-3090

make that 200tps on a single 5090, 4x faster than opus https://x.com/radixark/status/2088285681131110446

devs about to get handed a two 5090 box each and told to max that out

Depends on what software/hardware you'll run it. GGUFs from Unsloth can run on pretty much every single potato; full weights need beefy gpus

If the benchmarks are a real indication, we now have a local model that is runnable on a high-end personal PC that trades blows with the leading model Claude Opus 4.6 Max from half a year ago.

Insane if that is the case. Downloading now!
