capy-flash engine v0.7.4 optimizes Qwen3.8 models for dual-GPU setups

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The capy-flash engine, a fork of NInfer, has been updated to version 0.7.4, offering enhanced performance for Qwen3.8 models on dual-GPU setups. It is specifically optimized for NVFP4 quantization and can run on various configurations, including single GPUs or mixed pairs. While not aiming to outperform single-card engines like NInfer or Strata, capy-flash provides competitive speeds, particularly for its Qwen3.8-Flash-Next model, and offers a clear advantage over Strata when using NVFP4 weights on two GPUs.

IMPACT Offers improved performance for specific Qwen3.8 model configurations on dual-GPU systems, benefiting users with compatible hardware.
