Experimental JQK and global target bits‑per‑weight quantization of Nanbeige/Nanbeige4.3-33B.
Unlike standard llama.cpp quantization that relies on fixed type heuristics (e.g., Q4_K_M), the Target BPW approach automatically optimizes per-tensor precision where it matters the most, and produces high quality models that meet a precise global size target.
Key Advantages:
- Better model quality: using JQK types can improve KLD between 10% to 50% compared to standard QK types, at the same bpw.
- VRAM Maximization: Can generate high quality models sized exactly to fit hardware constraints (e.g., fitting the model into exactly 24GB VRAM).
- Data-Driven Precision: Quantization mix is determined by actual weight error sensitivity rather than hardcoded rules, often yielding better PPL/KLD size trade-offs.
