Muse Glimmer-30B NVFP4 (r0b0tlab)

NVFP4 (W4A4, block-16) quantization of meta-models/Muse-Glimmer-30B, built with NVIDIA ModelOpt 0.45.0 and qualified on a single NVIDIA DGX Spark (GB10 / SM121, 128 GB unified memory) with native FP4 tensor-core execution.

Weights size 59.6 GB 25.4 GB (2.34x)
Single-stream decode (GB10) ~4.2 tok/s ~10.3 tok/s (2.5x)
Aggregate @ c16 (GB10) 52.5 tok/s
Median TPOT (GB10) ~245 ms ~95 ms
Max context (live NIAH) 131,072 (3/3 depths incl. 117,734)

Quantization details

  • Method: ModelOpt NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG (dynamic input quantizer, block-16), *gate_proj excluded (classic NVFP4 quality protection).
  • Calibration: cnn_dailymail 3.0.0 train, 512 samples x 2,048 tokens, batch 1 (the ModelOpt canonical convention). Raw fetch SHA and windowing are recorded in modelopt_provenance.json.
  • Protected (stored BF16): vision tower, adapter, embeddings, lm_head, norms.
  • 364 quantized weights, 1,072 protected tensors; structural audits recorded in quantization.complete.json.

Serving

Requires unmerged vLLM Muse support: PR vllm-project/vllm#51655 (pinned head 1f7f0715848c9acc56ea40faa21c13a02bdc8357). Build the image with --build-arg torch_cuda_arch_list=12.0 — arch-accelerated 12.0a/12.1a cubins do not run on SM121.

Caveats (read before citing)

  • The base model is nondeterministic at temperature 0 (near-tie greedy tokens; verified empirically on repeated identical prompts). Matched-case output comparisons between dtypes are therefore noise-dominated — quality is reported on official scorers, not exact-string deltas.
  • Muse emits channel-scoped reasoning before the answer channel: short max_tokens budgets (<= ~64) can leave the answer channel empty.
  • Speculative decoding (DFlash, 3B assistant): correctness-verified and ~2.7x on BF16, but losslessness is unprovable given the temp-0 nondeterminism above. NVFP4+DFlash requires upstream quant-routing fixes not yet merged.
