Summary

A new 30B model matches systems 20-30x its size on popular benchmarks while using up to 95% fewer reasoning tokens than comparable agentic LLMs, achieved through a learned configurator that decides when and how to reason. Model and code are openly available.

On popular benchmarks, our 30B model matches systems 20-30x its size (gpt-5.4-xhigh, DeepSeek-V3.2, Kimi-K2.5), while using up to 95% fewer reasoning tokens than comparable 30/32B agentic LLMs. The trick: don't just reason less, reason about the right things. A learned configurator decides when to simulate, how far ahead, and when to skip planning entirely. Efficient reasoning is an allocation problem, not a compression problem. Model and code are openly available.

On popular benchmarks, our 30B model matches systems 20-30x its size (gpt-5.4-xhigh, DeepSeek-V3.2, Kimi-K2.5), while using up to 95% fewer reasoning tokens than comparable 30/32B agentic LLMs.

The trick: don’t just reason less, reason about the right things. A learned configurator decides when to simulate, how far ahead, and when to skip planning entirely.

Efficient reasoning is an allocation problem, not a compression problem.

Model and code are openly available.

Mingkai Deng (@mdeng34): Frontier LLMs are converging on efficient, adaptive reasoning. Opus 4.7 lets the model decide how deeply to reason. GPT-5.5 achieves strong results with fewer reasoning tokens.

The author tested Liquid AI's LFM3-1.7B model (Q8_0 GGUF via llama.cpp/ROCm) for compression and summarization, reporting strong prefill/decode throughput on Strix Halo and tensor-split 7900 XTX+XT setups, plus unexpectedly coherent performance at 32k-64k context lengths for a 1.7B model.
