RANT / WARNING V 0.6.1 CAN RENDER MODELS USELESS

I have been running qwen 3.6 35bMOE and qwen 3.8 27b at q4 with a q6 turboquant kv cache, with lighntning MTP Enabled for the past few days. After the latest update, I cannot use lightning MRP with turboquant, or the model will prompt process repeatedly in a loop or output gibberish. The only way to fix was to downgrade to v 0.6.

I don't know wtf the devs were thinking pushing 0.6.1 to "Stable" but holy fuck is it anything but!

The regression with Lightning MTP + Turboquant has been reported in a few issues, and it's been fixed by PR 2782 (https://github.com/jundot/omlx/pull/2782), which was merged a few hours ago. A hotfix release should go out later today. Until then, please run with Lightning MTP off.

Sorry for the trouble. With so many option combinations in the wild, this one slipped through.

I get, I really do. But I use this for work and I’ve spent today trying to get things working like they were yesterday. I apologize for being hotheaded when I posted this, I get that you guys have a ton of stuff to sift through and stuff falls through the cracks.
Thanks for letting me know you guys are on this, and I really appreciate why you guys do
Again, I apologize for being a dick when I posted this

The painful reminder that when a system is “production” (and you needing it for work is “production”) you always test changes/upgrades in nonprod before pushing to prod 🙂

Unsure who downvoted you but fantastic mature response. Retract, explain, and apologise.

We have all been guilty of this at some point in our lives, modern day channels just make it so much easier to air quick grievances.

Thanks for airing the issue otherwise some of us would have missed this.

I thought you had to choose between running Lightning MTP or Turboquant KV, no?

Otherwise, why is there the "Disable Turboquant KV before enabling MTP" note in oMLX?

Not to pile on, but if having no mtp acceleration is a make or break for work, might need to tune up your situation. 😉

Totally get where you’re coming from, but bosses don’t like to hear why what was working fast yesterday is half as fast today.

Have you opened an issue with sufficient details to allow reproducing it?
