Repo File Size Runs on Best for Korean PPL*
POCKET-35B-GGUF Q4_K_M 21 GB PC / server (32 GB RAM) top quality 5.79
POCKET-35B-GGUF Q2_K 13 GB mini-PC, no GPU daily driver 6.49
POCKET-35B-GGUF IQ1_M 8.2 GB 16 GB RAM box smallest full model 9.69
POCKET-KR-GGUF IQ2_M 5.1 GB Android 8 GB+ 🇰🇷 Korean phone 7.95
POCKET-KR-MLX 2-bit 5.1 GB 🍎 iPhone / iPad / Mac 🇰🇷 Korean, Apple-native 7.95
POCKET-EN-GGUF iPhone-mix 5.3 GB 🍎 iPhone (PocketPal) 🌍 English phone
POCKET-EN-GGUF PC-mix 6.8 GB PC / Android 🌍 English, best quality

*Wikipedia-Korean perplexity, lower is better. Q4_K_M = 5.79 baseline. English builds are tuned on English; see each repo.

🍎 Why MLX for Korean but GGUF for English on iPhone? Apple-native MLX only does uniform quantization. Korean survives it (96 experts hold up); English needs our mixed-precision trick, which only GGUF supports — so the English iPhone build ships as a GGUF you run with PocketPal. Honest, not lazy.

Speed vs Bonsai

Benchmarks — what is measured, what is not

We measure Bonsai on the same machine with the same stock llama.cpp, and we tell you where we lose.

[measured] Generation speed — POCKET wins on both CPU and GPU:

POCKET-35B IQ1_M Bonsai-27B Q1_0
CPU generate (Xeon, 16t) 27.0 tok/s 10.1 🟢 2.69×
GPU generate (H100) 197 tok/s 89 🟢 2.22×
GPU prompt (H100) 753 1816 🔴 0.41×
Quality (HellaSwag, 400q) 61.0% 60.0% ⚪ tie (CI overlaps)

[measured on a MacBook M3 Pro, 18 GB] — and on a laptop, POCKET wins every axis, including prompt processing:

POCKET-35B IQ1_M Bonsai-27B Q1_0
Metal generate (tg64) 25.4 tok/s 12.8 🟢 1.99×
CPU generate (8 threads) 13.8 tok/s 4.4 🟢 3.13×
Metal prompt (pp128) 240.7 tok/s 73.4 🟢 3.28×
CPU prompt (pp128) 45.5 tok/s 9.6 🟢 4.75×

On a laptop GPU the arithmetic headroom that let Bonsai win prefill on an H100 is gone, so MoE sparsity wins across the board. POCKET-35B-Q2_K runs on the M3 Pro's CPU at 19.5 tok/s — on an 18 GB Mac, run Q2_K on CPU (-ngl 0); its 13 GB exceeds the recommended Metal budget.

[pending — community reports welcome] on-device iPhone and Strix Halo throughput. We publish only what we ran ourselves; help us fill the rest.

The same-size rival Ternary-Bonsai-27B-Q2_0 (7.2 GB) fails to load in upstream llama.cpp — it needs the PrismML fork. POCKET runs on the tools you already have.

Lineage — where POCKET comes from

POCKET is quantized from Darwin-36B-Opus, VIDRAFT's flagship — a model bred and evolved over several generations on the Darwin platform (crossbreeding, healing, expert surgery). Darwin-36B-Opus itself traces back to a Qwen3.5-family MoE architecture.

Component Origin
Starting checkpoint Darwin-36B-Opus — VIDRAFT, multi-generation Darwin evolution
Base architecture Qwen3.5-family MoE (256 experts, top-8), unchanged
Quantization (Q4_K_MIQ1_M) stock llama.cpp — no custom format
Runtime upstream llama.cpp / Apple MLX — unmodified
Expert pruning + domain imatrix (KR/EN builds) ours (VIDRAFT)

The CPU/GPU speed comes from the sparse-MoE architecture plus ordinary quantization — reproducible with the same base and the same tools. What we add is the Darwin-evolved weights, the honest measurement, the Korean tuning, and the pruning that makes the 5 GB phone builds.

Limitations

  • The iPhone/Mac speed is not yet measured by us — community reports welcome.
  • Extreme quants (IQ1_M) hurt Korean ~2.8× more than English; use Q2_K or larger for quality.
  • English phone builds trade quality for size; the PC build (PC-mix) is much closer to full quality.
