# Tunables for frank-default-small (Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B CRACK Q6_K, MTP MoE, # Dankserver, RTX 3090). # # Runtime: ik_llama.cpp llama-server (ikawrakow ik_llama.cpp, built # 2026-08-26 from commit b166e269) on RTX 3090 24 GB; Ryzen 7 7700X; 62 GB # RAM. Previous runtime was upstream llama.cpp b10121. MoE expert weights # pinned to CPU with an explicit --override-tensor regex (not --n-cpu-moe). # KV cache quantized to q8_0 with Hadamard transforms on both K and V. # Split mode none (single GPU; graph would require 2+ devices). # # Build flags (IK_FA note, see docs/LLM/ikllama-ornith-dankserver.md) must # ALWAYS include: -DGGML_CUDA_FA_ALL_QUANTS=ON and -DGGML_IQK_FA_ALL_QUANTS=ON # so the quantized + Hadamard KV cache combos compile into the CUDA/CPU FA # kernels.
