Summary

The post details running the Ornith-1.5-9B AI model on an RTX 3060 with 200k context, achieving high inference speeds using advanced quantization techniques.

Ornith-1.5-9B at Q5 on a single RTX 3060: 200k context at ~52 tok/s, ~1700 tok/s prefill. 11.8 of the 12GB, zero cpu offload. (config below) 32 layers, only 8 of them carry a kv cache, the other 24 hold a fixed recurrent state. that's why 200k sits next to the weights at f16 -- no quantized cache needed here. quant is @atomic_chat_hq's AD-Q5_K-Q4_K at 5.93gb: smaller than stock Q5_K_M and lower kl divergence at the same time, 0.0255 vs 0.0299. @ornith_'s 35B is the better model -- if you have 16gb ram and you're fine with moe offload, run that one instead. this is for people who want everything resident on the card and their system ram untouched.

32 layers, only 8 of them carry a kv cache, the other 24 hold a fixed recurrent state. that’s why 200k sits next to the weights at f16 – no quantized cache needed here.

quant is @atomic_chat_hq’s AD-Q5_K-Q4_K at 5.93gb: smaller than stock Q5_K_M and lower kl divergence at the same time, 0.0255 vs 0.0299.

@ornith_’s 35B is the better model – if you have 16gb ram and you’re fine with moe offload, run that one instead. this is for people who want everything resident on the card and their system ram untouched. (35B config in the replies)
