GLM-5.3-Flash-DFlash2-GGUF

Community GGUF of Inco AI's DFlash 2 draft model for GLM-5.3-Flash.

This is not a standalone language model. It only drafts tokens for a GLM-5.3-Flash target under speculative decoding.

GGUF metadata from this convert: dflash.block_size=8, conv_kernel_size=2, conv_group_size=16, selector_rank=256, selector_top_k=16, target_layers=[6,15,25,34,43]. Vocab is the GLM-5.3 tokenizer (154880).

Q8_0 / Q4_K_M drafts were measured on a Spark and are not in this repo.

Run

Needs llama.cpp with DFlash 2 (grouped dynamic conv + candidate selector). That is ggml-org/llama.cpp#27342, also on vcruz305/llama.cpp main / glm5next-mtp at 6f5ac9a (+ aarch64 cmath 4a06ec6). Pair with a GLM-5.3-Flash target GGUF such as vcruz305/GLM-5.3-Flash-GGUF.

--spec-draft-n-max clamps to 7 (block_size - 1). Do not combine with --spec-type draft-mtp on the same server.

Measured (one DGX Spark GB10, 2026-08-27)

Target: GLM-5.3-Flash-Q2_K.gguf. Tool: llama-speculative-simple, greedy, seed 42.

Unique prompt "The capital of France is" (n=64, FA on, no q8 KV): 17.58 t/s, accept 31.41%.

Repetitive bench file, FA + q8 KV, -c 2048, n=128:

draft n_max t/s accept
MTP-3 control 3 28.23 73.2%
DFlash2 BF16 7 41.40 94.4%
DFlash2 Q4_K_M 7 43.43 94.4%

Do not quote 94% as a model score — that file is a repeated sentence.

Ctx ladder (Q4_K_M, n_max=7, p_min=0.30, FA+q8, n=64):

ctx t/s accept
8,192 39.58 89.9%
32,768 39.53 89.9%
65,536 39.71 89.9%
98,304 38.86 89.9%

96k is the last measured OK (114,820 MiB of 124,610). 114k/128k not re-run for DFlash2.
