OptimaMT/es-it

OptimaMT es → it (Spanish to Italian)

Drop-in copy of Xenova/opus-mt-es-it at revision 596c67cda7cb with a lighter merged decoder: ONNX Runtime's fast mode (disable_quant_qdq = 1, 2.3–2.5× faster) at half the memory. Same weights, same tokens. Part of OptimaMT: all 49 pairs, named OptimaMT/<src>-<tgt>.

Used in production:

• OpenCircle, a desktop screen translator for Windows and Linux, ships these models since v0.1.4.

Memory after load	Linux	Windows	Identical tokens
disable_quant_qdq = 1	501 → 270 MiB (-46 %)	479 → 249 MiB (-48 %)	yes
ONNX Runtime defaults	269 → 211 MiB (-21 %)	192 → 163 MiB (-15 %)	yes

FLORES-200 devtest (1,012 sentences): the same translations as the original, BLEU 20.58, chrF 51.41 (greedy).

ONNX Runtime 1.31.1, CPU, 4 threads (Linux; Windows in a VM). Interactive results: OptimaMT/results · method: REPORT.md.

Use

import { pipeline } from "@huggingface/transformers";

const translator = await pipeline("translation", "OptimaMT/es-it", {
  dtype: "q8",
  session_options: { extra: { session: { disable_quant_qdq: "1" } } },
});
const [out] = await translator("El faro está en la costa.");
console.log(out.translation_text);

Python (translate.py: onnxruntime, sentencepiece, numpy):

python translate.py OptimaMT/es-it "El faro está en la costa."
