The Strata framework has seen two key updates that impact local LLM performance and behavior. Version 0.1.45 resolves an issue where older builds defaulted to greedy sampling when a request lacked specific sampling parameters, which could cause models to loop. The update now correctly applies model card defaults in such cases. Additionally, a change in `STRATA_ROUTE_TAIL_SKIP` from the default of 7 to 0 is recommended for users prioritizing quality over speed, particularly with 4-bit quantized models, as the default setting can degrade output quality.
