docs+deploy: Dankserver now llama.cpp frank-default-small (HauhauCS Q6_K_P + DFlash)
Retire vllm-awq-qwen36 (AWQ) from target maps, README, deployment, KB index, Dankserver specs, DFlash and FP8 docs. New dankserver runtime: upstream llama.cpp, port 7770, alias frank-default-small, 3x262144 ctx, DFlash Q8_0 draft, MoE experts offloaded to CPU, attention+KV on GPU (K q8_0, V f16). deploy.sh now maps dankserver to frank-default-small and symlinks its unit. models.json: dankserver baseUrl -> :7770, contextWindow -> 262144.

## Deployment on Dankserver (NVIDIA RTX 3090)

Dankserver runs vLLM in a Podman container with the RTX 3090. The RTX 3090 is Ampere (compute capability 8.6). Use these conditions:

The active Dankserver deployment runs **llama.cpp + DFlash** (`frank-default-small`), not vLLM. It serves the HauhauCS Qwen3.6-35B-A3B uncensored `Q6_K_P` on port 7770 with the `Alittlehammmer/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-DFlash` Q8_0 draft, 3 slots at 262144 context, and MoE experts on CPU. See [[deployment]] and `scripts/serve-llama-frank-small.sh`.

- FP8 KV cache is valid on CUDA 12.

### Active Services
|
||||
|
||||
A vLLM engine core (Podman container `vllm-qwen36-dflash`) occupies approximately 22 GB of the RTX 3090 VRAM (`nvidia-smi` reports `VLLM::EngineCore` at 22164 MiB).
|
||||
The active `frank-default-small` service (llama.cpp, `b10108+`) serves the HauhauCS Qwen3.6-35B-A3B uncensored `Q6_K_P` model on port 7770 with a DFlash draft. It runs 3 parallel slots at 262144 context each. All 40 layers' MoE expert weights sit on CPU (`--n-cpu-moe 40`) while non-expert tensors and the full-attention KV cache stay on GPU (`--gpu-layers all`, KV K=`q8_0`, V=`f16`). At load it uses about 22 GB of the 24 GB VRAM and roughly 4 GB of resident RAM (experts are lazy-mapped).

## vLLM Relevance
|
||||
## Hardware Relevance
|
||||
|
||||
- 24 GB VRAM limits model size. Use FP8 quantization for large models.
|
||||
- 62 GB system RAM provides ample swap space for KV cache offloading.
|
||||
- 127 GB swap supports large `--swap-space` values for CPU KV cache paging.
|
||||
- Root disk has approximately 140 GB free. Store models on /mnt/entropy.
|
||||
- CUDA 12.0 and Python 3.12.3 are compatible with vLLM.
|
||||
- 24 GB VRAM limits the GPU-resident footprint. With 3 x 262144 context, the full-attention KV cache plus non-expert weights consume about 22 GB, leaving about 2 GB of headroom. MoE experts must stay on CPU.
|
||||
- 62 GB system RAM holds the ~29 GB of MoE expert weights with room to spare (~57 GB available after load).
|
||||
- 127 GB swap is available for CPU KV cache paging if GPU KV offload is disabled.
|
||||
- Root disk has approximately 140 GB free. Store the GGUF models under `/home/dank/models` (about 32 GB total).

The active service on Dankclaw runs a vLLM-ROCm runtime for the Ling-3.0-flash CIRU INT4 (W4A16) model. It serves under the alias `frank-default-large` on port 7770 with native MTP speculative decoding. The unit file is `scripts/frank-default-large.service` in the repository. The machine symlinks it to `/etc/systemd/system/frank-default-large.service`. The service launches through `scripts/serve-ling3-vllm.sh`, which sources the CIRU runtime and passes the production settings (host `0.0.0.0`, port 7770, gpu memory utilization 0.95).

It uses a DFlash draft (`Alittlehammmer/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-DFlash:Q8_0`) with `--spec-draft-n-max 7`, 3 parallel slots at 262144 context each, and mmproj vision.

The unit file is `scripts/frank-default-small.service`, symlinked to `/etc/systemd/system/`.
