Qwen3.8 native context = 262144 per sequence. # 524288 total / PARALLEL 2 = 262144 per slot, matching the pi client's # contextWindow=262144 for frank-default-large. Model is 29GB; ROCm has # ~70GB headroom, so 2x262k quantized KV fits. Verify at startup. CTX_SIZE=524288 PARALLEL=2 # Spec: selected from the 2026-08-14 matrix (bench-spec-matrix.sh). # WINNER: draft-mtp alone, n_max=10, p_min off -> ~30 t/s, STABLE, no # premature stop. Layered draft-mtp,ngram-mod was faster on paper (median # 133 t/s) but is non-deterministic (10-148 t/s) and shows a degenerate # instant-EOS (tok=0) -> the same premature-stop class that retired DFlash. # Rejected as production-unsafe.
