User reports Qwen3.8-Flash-Next at 116 t/s decode and 2,908 t/s prompt read on two RTX 3090s with NVLink. Setup is a modified Strata build (v0.1.38 plus 29 commits) with IQ3_S GGUF at 262K context, greedy, median of 3, on a Ryzen 9 3950X with 121 GB RAM. The second card acts as a peer expert tier read over NVLink; the pair holds about 19,500 of 24,576 IQ3_S experts with a 0.98 hit rate on real agent chats. Decode gains from the second card are modest (+10%) because the verify window is latency-bound on the primary. Sampled with official settings it sits around 102-104 t/s, a 1.5K prompt reads at ~1,670 t/s, and switching chats takes 1 s. One stream at a time; answers are word-for-word identical to the one-card run.

User reports Qwen3.8 27B at about 15 tok/s on an RTX 5090. Setup is Ollama with Row-Bot 5.0, running locally with no API keys or cloud. The model read a year of bills, a tenancy agreement, an insurance policy and a rent increase letter, charted a CSV, quoted lease clauses, saved 8 linked memories to a local knowledge graph, and drafted an email. Some turns took over 2 minutes.

User reports Qwen3.8-27B GGUF quants fail to converge on long thinking tasks on 2x RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, while NVFP4 mixed-precision quants converge in ~17K thinking tokens. Setup is llama.cpp and vLLM with UD-Q6_K_XL GGUF (23.6 GB) and f16 KV cache, tensor-parallel across 2 GPUs. Throughput was healthy at 23-41 t/s on llama.cpp and 22-23 t/s on vLLM. The failure appears after 30K-38K thinking tokens with no closing token, tail-looping, or engine crash. The same model in NVFP4 (FP8 attention/GDN, FP4 MLP) converges in ~17K tokens on SGLang at 47-50 t/s. User hypothesizes recurrent state error accumulation under uniform quantization.

Setup is llama.cpp with a customized SYCL backend, Q2_0 GGUF quant, q8_0 KV cache, 262144 context, MTP speculative decoding, and 34 MoE layers offloaded to CPU. Overclocking gave about 10% higher prefill and 5% higher generation overall; the post compares base and overclocked llama-benchy numbers across context depths.

Setup uses partial CPU offload to fit the models in memory; the user notes that offloading more layers would cause a significant slowdown. User reports around 40 tok/s when staying in the 34-30 layer offload range, and asks whether a larger quant of a 27B model would be more capable than the cut-down Flash-Next builds.

User benchmarks Qwen3.8-27B at 46.72 t/s decode and 1021.1 t/s prefill at 1999 tokens of context on an unspecified NVIDIA GPU. Setup is llama.cpp with IQ4_KS_KT GGUF weights and q4_0 KV cache, 99 GPU layers, 110000 context size, single request, no speculative decoding. The post presents a context-length sweep from 2K to 107K tokens, with decode falling from 46.72 to 23.37 t/s and prefill from 1021.1 to 624.7 t/s. A second model with MTP enabled reaches 64.97 to 97.63 t/s decode, and a third configuration with KV cache 5_0/4_1 shows a VRAM cliff around 107K context.

User reports Qwen3.8-27B at 92.9 tok/s decode on a single RTX 5090 with SparkInfer and no speculation. Setup is SparkInfer v0.5.5 with an NVFP4 checkpoint (17.92 GB, two shards) and int8 KV cache at the full 262,144-token context, which costs 27.9 GB. The same weights reach 85.8 tok/s on SGLang with FP8 KV, 161.7 tok/s on SGLang with the DSpark v2 drafter, and 264.8 tok/s overall (up to 420.2 on code) in SparkInfer's bench harness with DSpark. Under concurrency SparkInfer peaks at 344.3 tok/s aggregate at 8 requests, while vLLM reaches 546.6 tok/s at 16. A configured 32,022-token prefix cache cuts a repeated request from 5.75 s to 0.30 s.

Setup is llama.cpp (llama-b11401 for ROCm, llama-b11382 for Vulkan) with Q6_K GGUF weights, both GPUs power limited to 145 watts. ROCm shows +10.14% generation and +18.46% prefill over Vulkan for this model. Across the full nine-model sweep, ROCm gains up to +62.74% on generation but regresses on MoE prefill by up to -15.98%, with high variance (e.g. ±102.56 on Qwen3.5MoE Q4_K prefill).

User reports Qwen3.8 Flash-Next at about 50 tok/s decode with MTP on a Strix Halo 128GB box, even at 116k context. Setup is a forked Gufo engine with the Unsloth UD-IQ4_XS quant (about 89GB) and an MTP sidecar, running in the 120W performance profile. Prefill is 1500+ tok/s from about 3k tokens up, peaking around 1570; on HumanEval prompts decode is about 76 tok/s with MTP versus 28 without. The balanced profile is around 10% less prefill, and very short prompts are slower (about 1350 at 2k) due to a fixed cost per request.
