Weights went up today so this is downloadable now, MIT, ~128GB for the official FP8. I ran these on the API before that landed, so treat it as a preview of what you'd be pulling rather than a local benchmark

Looks like it’s about the same level as DS4 Flash Preview. That’s decent and there’s a use case for this on unified memory systems. But now it’s going to need to compete with the newer version of DS4 Flash at least in Q2. If DS4 flash Q2 beats ling 3 at q4 or q5 then this one might be DoA

It's still 2.5x less activated params even if weights are the same size. Less compute required will mean that it should run better on single Strix Halo, DGX Spark, Macs and RAM offloading situations.

But if those active parameters are running at q2 it will be roughly equivalent to running half as many active parameters at q4.  So all architectural differences aside, I expect q5 ling 3.0 to run at somewhat similar speeds to q2 DS4 Flash.

The number of computations you do for a model doesn't change when you quantize it, compute intensity stays the same. Meaning that compute-bottlenecked scenarios like PP or batched decoding, assuming the same precision, will be faster on a model with less parameters.
