What changes the fit.

Weights establish the floor. Context, concurrent sequences, cache precision, and runtime overhead determine whether the deployment remains stable.

6.9 GiB

Useful starting point for local evaluation and cost-sensitive inference.

Quality-first

17.0 GiB

Preserves original weight precision and establishes a conservative serving baseline.
