Qwen3.6 35B (3B active)
on Unknown GPU · OpenVINO
Summary
User reports Qwen3.6 35B-A3B MoE at ~10 tok/s on an Intel Arc integrated GPU (Arrow Lake-P, Core Ultra 9 285H).
Setup is OpenVINO 2026.2.0 with INT4/INT8 weights (~21GB) in OpenVINO IR format.
The same MoE model runs at 17-19 tok/s under llama.cpp Vulkan on the same iGPU, and the user notes the MoE is slower than a dense Qwen3-8B (12.1 tok/s) on OpenVINO. Per-layer IR analysis shows 78 ops/layer x 40 layers = 3,120 unfused operations for the MoE MLP, causing GPU underutilization.
