TIM-360M-base β€” GGUF

GGUF quantizations of TIM-360M-base for llama.cpp and downstream runtimes (Ollama, LM Studio, llamafile). This is the base model β€” a from-scratch 361.8M-parameter decoder-only transformer. It is not instruction-tuned; for chat use tim-360m-instruct.

Converted from the Qwen3ForCausalLM export (arch: qwen3, byte-level BPE, Llama-3-family pre-tokenizer).

Files

File Quant Size Use when
tim-360m-base.F16.gguf F16 692 MB Reference / lossless; re-quantize from this
tim-360m-base.Q8_0.gguf Q8_0 369 MB Near-lossless, minimal quality loss
tim-360m-base.Q4_K_M.gguf Q4_K_M 258 MB Smallest; best size/quality trade-off for CPU

At this scale everything runs comfortably on CPU.

Usage

llama.cpp:

llama-cli -m tim-360m-base.Q4_K_M.gguf -p "The capital of France is" -n 64

Ollama (Modelfile):

FROM ./tim-360m-base.Q4_K_M.gguf
ollama create tim-360m-base -f Modelfile
ollama run tim-360m-base "The capital of France is"

This is a base completion model β€” give it a prefix to continue, not a chat prompt.
