User seeks small, local LLM for reverse engineering on 3090

A user on Reddit's r/LocalLLaMA subreddit is seeking recommendations for a small, locally runnable language model suitable for reverse engineering tasks. The user specifically mentioned that cloud-based models can be problematic due to account termination for such activities, and that GLM 5.3 is too large for their hardware. They are looking for a model that can operate on a system with a 3090 graphics card and 32GB of RAM. AI
