Frank e23df8b229 perf(frank-small): cap the CPU RAM cache at 2048 MiB
The build default is 8192 MiB. dankclaw is memory-tight (frank-large's
70 GiB GTT plus the rest of the stack) and Gemma4 runs fully on the 3090
(-ngl 999), so the CPU-side cache is not the hot path. Cap it at 2048 to
give back ~6 GiB of LPDDR. Gemma4 is not a DeltaNet model, so the
>12.8 GiB CACHE_RAM floor does not apply.

Wired through frank-small.env (CACHE_RAM) -> serve-frank-small.sh
(--cache-ram), with a wiring seam so the cap cannot be silently unwired.

# Tunables for frank-small (HauhauCS/Gemma4-12B-QAT-Uncensored-HauhauCS-
# Balanced, Q4_K_M, plus the BF16 vision projector and the separate MTP
# sidecar) on mainline llama.cpp, Dankclaw's RTX 3090, since 2026-09-17.
#
# Runtime: llama.cpp master 37b53fd, CUDA build for sm_86:
# cmake -B build-cuda -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DGGML_NATIVE=ON \
# -DGGML_CUDA=ON -DCMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES=86 -DGGML_CUDA_FA_ALL_QUANTS=ON
# cmake --build build-cuda --target llama-server -j
# GGML_CUDA_FA_ALL_QUANTS is ON: this service runs q8_0 KV with flash
# attention, and without the flag quantized-KV prefill collapses ~12x on
# CUDA (see the CUDA lesson in AGENTS.md).
#
# Model: HauhauCS/Gemma4-12B-QAT-Uncensored-HauhauCS-Balanced at Q4_K_M
# (6.87 GiB). Architecture (GGUF arch gemma4): 48 layers, MHA with 16 kv
# heads x 512 head_dim, rope freq_base 1e6, final logit softcapping 30,
# per-layer token embeddings (PLE) inside the file, and a sliding-window
# attention pattern (attention.sliding_window = 1024) -- most layers cache
# only a 1024-position window, which is why the KV pool is a fraction of
# the full-ctx x all-layers number.
#
# MTP: the Multi-Token Prediction head ships as a SEPARATE file
# (mtp-gemma-4-12B-it.gguf, arch gemma4-assistant, 4 nextn layers, 0.24
# GiB). Unlike the Qwen3.8 -mtp build (head inside the main file), this one
# is passed via --model-draft with --spec-type draft-mtp, so the draft
# context loads the assistant model. The same --spec-type value chains the
# draftless ngram-mod matcher, which attaches unconditionally; two
# context-backed drafters cannot share one process, so draft-mtp,ngram-mod
# is the only legal shape that carries both.
#
# SIZING (RTX 3090, 24576 MiB): CTX_SIZE = PARALLEL x 262144 -- four
# FULL-window slots, measured to fit: the 4-slot boot idles at 22,346
# MiB and each extra full-context slot costs 3,450 MiB (measured 1-slot
# 11,996 -> 4-slot 22,346). A fifth slot projects to ~25.8 GiB, past the
# card, and the KV pool allocates upfront -- so 4 is the max. Explicit
# CTX_SIZE bypasses --fit on purpose: --fit maximises the TOTAL pool,
# which would shrink each slot below the full 262144 window once
# parallel > 1.
#
# Vision + audio: --mmproj loads the BF16 projector (11 tensors, 52M
# params; it carries an audio encoder too). The fleet's image path lives
# here, which is why halogen no longer sets HALOGEN_VISION_TOWER. Audio
# WORKS: input_audio content parts transcribe verbatim (verified
# 2026-09-17 with a 16k mono WAV).
#
# Sampling: greedy by default (the fleet contract); a client that sends a
# temperature gets its own, and the harness applies per-model overrides
# from models.yml.
#
# WARNING: do not name any variable TEMP, HOST, or GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE (HIP
# reads those bare vars on the ROCm hosts -- see the 2026-08-13 incident in
# AGENTS.md). This box is CUDA, but the rule keeps env files portable.
# llama.cpp runtime binary: mainline master 37b53fd, CUDA sm_86,
