A developer has successfully optimized the Muse Glimmer 30B model, enabling it to run with a 256K context window on a single 24GB GPU. This optimization, utilizing DFlash techniques, significantly boosted performance, achieving 84.64 tokens/sec for DFlash code generation and 38.34 tokens/sec for mixed agent work. The developer noted that the fastest or lowest-perplexity quantizations did not yield the best results, suggesting that token throughput is influenced by predictability when using speculative decoding.
