Frank de85654b76 frank-primary: four full-window slots, V q8_0 KV, hot expert blocks on-GPU
- CONTEXT_SIZE=1048576 / PARALLEL_SLOTS=4: four conversations, each the
  full native 262144 window (per-slot window unchanged; slots divide
  the pool, they never multiply it).
- CACHE_TYPE_V=q8_0 / CACHE_TYPE_K=f16: main KV drops 24,576 -> 18,816
  B/token (-23.4%); the shared MTP drafter's KV ignores the V type
  (measured: 2,048 MiB draft pool = the f16 law at 1,048,576 cells).
- OT_OVERRIDES: blocks 0-3 on ROCm0 and 45-47 on ROCm1 stay
  GPU-resident (2.42/2.49 GiB per block, measured); the rest stay
  CPU-computed. Measured free under load: ~4.9 GB card0 / ~3.4 GB
  card1; a 5th block on card0 lands at 2.27 GB, under the 3 GB
  checkpoint floor, so blocks are atomic and 4 is the safe fill.
- serve script: --cache-type-k/v env-wired tunables; ONE joined
  --override-tensor flag (b11030 deprecates repeated flags, and the
  loader is first-match-wins, so the specific patterns must precede
  the broad exps=CPU sweep).
- seams: the window test asserts per-slot = 262144 at 4 slots; new
  KV-type test; OT exact-value assertion pins the ordering law.

# frank-primary — unsloth llama.cpp (b11030-mix prebuilt, ROCm gfx120X)
# serving unsloth/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF at Q8_0 on the two Radeon AI PRO
# R9700s (gfx1201), with the shared Q8_0 MTP drafter head, the BF16 vision
# projector, and the draft-mtp + ngram-mod spec chain.
#
# These are the tunables read by scripts/serve-frank-primary.sh. The flag
# list is owned by the serve script; this file only sets fleet values.
#
# DO NOT name a new tunable TEMP, HOST or GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE: the HIP
# runtime reads those bare (the 2026-08-13 TEMP incident). The bind address
# is BIND_HOST, not HOST — frank-large's env predates that lesson and gets
# away with it; do not copy the shape.
# The payload (scripts/download-frank-primary.sh): the serve script refuses
# to start without all six Q8_0 parts, the MTP head and the projector.
MODEL_ROOT=/home/dank/models/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF
# The runtime: the unsloth b11030-mix prebuilt for gfx120X (the same
# b11030-mix build frank-large runs on gfx1151 — it bundles its own ROCm
# runtime, no host SDK gate).

# Four conversations, each the model's full native 262144 window.
# --parallel divides --ctx-size into slots — the pool is 4x262144 cells
# (~23 GiB at the V-quantized law below, split across both cards). Slots
# DIVIDE the pool; they never multiply it. Per-slot window stays the

# Spec chain: draft-mtp (the shared Q8_0 head) at depth 2, with the
# draftless ngram-mod matcher chained behind it. Depth 2 is the measured
# optimum class for this pair at long contexts (the retired Dankclaw
# Flash-Next deployment ran exactly this head at depth 2 with 0.83-0.92
# acceptance); each extra verified position re-batches the CPU expert
# reads, so depth buys less than bandwidth here.

# Device placement. -ngl 999 puts every layer's non-overridden tensors on
# the GPUs; the big overrides then move the bandwidth-huge tensors to host
# RAM (computed there — the x4-pair measurement: streaming over PCIe loses,
# computing in RAM does not care). OT_OVERRIDES is ONE comma-separated
# <tensor-pattern>=<backend> list passed as a single --override-tensor
# flag (b11030 logs DEPRECATED for repeated flags and wants the joined
# form), and the loader applies the FIRST matching pattern per tensor —
# so the block-specific patterns MUST precede the broad exps=CPU sweep.
#
# Hot expert blocks stay GPU-resident (2026-09-26): -ot granularity is the
# whole per-block expert tensor (512 experts share one tensor), so "critical
# experts" = blocks co-located on the card that holds their layers.
# Measured cost: 2.42 GiB/block on ROCm0, 2.49 GiB/block on ROCm1.
# Blocks 0-3 on ROCm0 + 45-47 on ROCm1 leave ~4.9 GB / ~3.4 GB free under
# load (vision graph included). A 5th block on ROCm0 lands at 2.27 GB —
# under the 3 GB checkpoint floor — so it stays off; blocks are atomic,
# nothing lands card0 inside the 3-4 GB band.
# * exps=CPU — the remaining routed experts (blk.*.ffn_*_exps.weight,
# ~100 GiB at Q8_0 even with 7 blocks GPU-side), read once per token;
# the CPU backend computes them from page cache.
# * per_layer_token_embd.weight=CPU — the 51B-element PLE n-gram table
# (dims [160, 320001536], Q8_0, 54.4 GiB — the whole of part 3):
# sparse row lookups, tiny PCIe traffic from CPU RAM. It doubles as
# the shared MTP head's borrow tensor — GPU-resident, the draft load
# crashes with "invalid vector subscript" (llama.cpp PR #28243) — so
# this override is REQUIRED, not just a placement choice. NEVER give
# it a GPU target (the 23 -> 13.4 t/s regression) and never --no-mmap
# (the table must stay page-cache-backed; anonymous memory
# cgroup-kills silently).

# n_copies==1 in the draft's scheduler — a borrowed output.weight sitting in
# a ROCm1 buffer then aborts the draft graph with ggml-backend.cpp:941
# "pre-allocated tensor (output.weight) in a buffer (ROCm1) that cannot run
