isn't 27b too big (slow) for a decision model? I think they should be as fast as possible

I'm getting about 3k tok/s on prefill so it heavily depends on the input size. I hooked it up into a coding agent for shell permission checks, estimated shell execution time (buckets), goal pre-screening, subagent routing etc. and I have RTTs between 100-200ms. It can take noticeably longer for huge contexts because of the prefill speed but it can be cached so subsequent calls will be much faster.

I tried smaller decision models like laya (also with custom finetunes) but the accuracy was not really good (for the things I tested). Also I don't have any VRAM left on this GPU so i had to decide whether to host laya or qwen-3.8-27b but not both at the same time. Running decision models on a CPU will also be noticeably slower so I went down this route to have both combined with shared base weights.


we use that same model at our company, it powers not only our devs but also many business needs. We rent 1 gpu (B300), it costs around 10x less than the api costs

Do you rent from AWS or some other provider? I wonder if there are issues with on-demand rent for those high-end GPU instances, is capacity always there or sometimes it is unavailable?

I don't touch AWS. We rent from an european provider. Demand can be tricky for serverless/spot-pricing. We have an always-on server so, no issues.

If there's some cost or availability question you have, AWS has some complicated bullshit to solve the problem for you. Check out reserved instances.

yay! /s

Why are people still putting up with this kind of attitude, especially when there are so many good alternatives available?

not as simple as that: nested AGENTS.md, skills, agent customization, MCP, ... the list of misaligned harness features is still rather long


Loved netscape navigator! That entire suite with mail, website builder (composer?)


Mosaic :P


that's genetic modification for you. nature doesn't make seedless fruits


If by "genetic modification" you mean "random genetic mutation" formally known as stenospermocarpy.

Seedless grapes existed in the Mediterranean centuries ago. The now-popular Thompson seedless was brought from the Ottoman empire in 1872.

Similar story with bananas and the parthenocarpy mutation. Then you layer selective breeding on top of that to create complete sterility due to triploidy.

Others like the babaco papaya are just simple sterile interspecific hybrids.

So nature actually does make seedless fruit by accident quite often. It's just that you need humans to come along and clonally propagate them.


yes, please. Especially now that xcancel is gone



climbing stairs was my first question. But looking at its size, I dont think it will be able to


Kimi K3 is amazing


wow, what kind of stuff does that script do? I've seen non-vision models analyze images, but mostly histograms, color averages etc. This one seems to actually understand the image itself and reproduce the layout, very impressive
