Looking at Tonyโs repo it seems like --kv-cache-dtype fp8 was still giving me bf16, even though it tells me Using fp8 data type to store kv cache in the logs .
Hello,
Iโve been testing it since this morning (through Xiaomi API).
I gave the same tasks to it and to DS4 Flash 0731 (agentic coding, mainly TS backend / react frontend).
DS4 Flash 0731 won each and every time (3 different bugfix/features).
Maybe itโs better for other situations, I donโt know.
Did you run the same test against GLM 5.3 Flash vs DS4F0731?
Yesterday I spent the afternoon running the same task against 4 models: GLM 5.3 Flash (API), DS4.1 Flash (API), 0731 (2x Spark), Qwen 3.8 27B (5090)
DS4.1 Flash took 30 minutes, like Qwen 3.8 27B ; 0731 took 45 minutes. GLM 5.3 Flash took 2 hours, it is SO SLOW.
And it didnโt produce a result better than the others. That wasnโt a really difficult task (creating a harness for local image generation โร la chatgptโ), every model got it done to some extent. The best iteration was DS4.1, but every model on that list would have been able to push the task to completion with some refining prompts.
All that to say: I wonโt retry anything with GLM 5.3 Flash through the API, itโs too slow for my taste.
Just use high, no xhigh.
Iโll give it a try next time, thanks
Booted, few flags were missing in the original recipe:
- No --priviliged flag โ torch hit access denied on worker
- Weird --memory flags present for no reason - it is controlled either by GMU or KV cache pin (extra complexity)
- Extra memory pressure can be detrimental if mm profiling is not disabled - costs few secs on the first MM request but gives more leeway on boot
- No reason to keep profiler cache in memory on boot - drop it
Otherwise I have 2M cache now and can boost it by 2 GB safely, i.e. somewhat 2.5M easy.
Model arch is same as 2.5 - no reasoning levels, just thinking off (still thinks on demand) and thinking on (deep thinking mode with reasoning traces retained - in 2.5 it was a total overkill and never helped - like xhigh on GLM)
Model is pretty fast - DeepSeek level fast. Llama-benchy does not measure properly - syntetic text collapses acceptance. tool-eval-bench --spec-bench measures properly. Hardmode 88 completed in 440s in 4 parallels - record level speed of ds4 0731. Quality results still inconclusive - first recorded just 85/100 with thinking off. Will play with some knobs.
Beaten it into a shape, but it was not easy, plus a proxy (available on GH in my repo) is required to handle crooked absence of original mimo parser in VLLM.
2.5M context. 1M session. DFlash = 5 tokens. Batch 1024. And few other flags added/changed from original Tonyโs recipe.
Proxy must be run between harness and VLLM to handle structured output - price of absence of original Mimo parser in VLLM (forces non-thinking mode when structured output is required)

PS it still does not work properly in harness - same surface, different angle. More work needed.
