  1. Q4 quantization results in negligible quality loss; even Q3 can be viable.
  2. Use Unsloth’s GGUF format.
  3. Set thinking to low mode.
  4. Enable dflash2.

Alexey Fateev (@superalesha): Main result. At xhigh every quant landed between 88.0 and 90.0% pass@1 on the full suite:

AWQ INT4: 90.0% NVFP4: 89.3% GGUF Q4_K_M: 89.3% FP8: 88.7% NInfer: 88.0%

Yes, the 4 bit quants scored above the FP8 baseline. McNemar says its a statistical tie, first and last place
