A user on Reddit shared their process for optimizing the Qwen3.6-35B-A3B model on a single RTX 3090 GPU. They aimed for maximum quality and speed with a 128k context window. Benchmarks indicate that the `ik_llama` engine with the `I-Compact` APEX model offers the fastest generation speeds, while the `spiritbuun` engine with `I-Quality` and a TurboQuant cache provides comparable speed with potentially higher quality. The `I-Quality` model shows strong performance metrics, closely matching higher-quality benchmarks while being significantly smaller and faster than the reference BF16 model. AI
