We just hit 300 members today—woke up to 100+ new people joining overnight. Come join these top DIY hackers using extreme optimization to make old hardware run Qwen3.8-Flash and GLM5.3-Flash. 🚀xitter.cf/i/chat/group_join/g209…
Just a bit of insight: people are eager to build their own rigs for local LLMs, the same way we were obsessed with building gaming PCs 30 years ago. xitter.cf/i/chat/group_join/g209…

This is my always-on dashboard for watching local LLM resource usage—VRAM, RAM, power, TPS, all in one place. Full screen, it looks awesome.
Holy shit—even NVIDIA’s incremental, toothpaste-squeezing generational upgrades haven’t delivered a jump this big. At this rate, used GPU prices might end up matching new GPU prices. github.com/Zagitta/gpu-unloc…

ISTA GSQ-RCO IQ2_XXS in DSH, no vision. Gonna rerun another round for ISTA GSQ-RCO IQ2_XS.

Built this resource dashboard for myself—not gonna lie, it’s easy on the eyes. 📊

decode speed is geting better and better
It really works—decode gains are up to 40%, power draw is cut by 45%, and my 256GB RAM is finally earning its keep. Thanks!

"Strata is 1.8x slower on DeepSeek" - I measured it, and I was right. Until one flag: --mmap-experts off → 12.9 → 28.6 tok/s, now faster than Maya on decode. Same code, same box, same weights. The bug wasn't the engine, it was the engine's guess about your RAM. below the table

Oops, it failed the voxel pagoda garden case. 3.5 hours gave me a 💩. Clearly, without vision it won’t finish this job.

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is an absolute power killer—2× the power draw of Qwen3.8-Flash.
First 4×V100 + Strata + DeepSeek benchmark is wild: even at 1M context, prefill 1k TPS beats llama.cpp + Qwen3.8-Flash by literally 4×, with no tuning yet. That’s why I waited for Strata—several engines can run V100 + DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, but honestly, I trust @coldniko (even if he forgot to follow me back 😁).

WTF! I had official DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 run a full eval of @mhelcig’s local GSQ-RCO IQ2_XS to measure the gap vs. the full-weight model. 1.5 hours and 367 tasks later, both passed everything—and the full-weight version actually scored a hair worse than IQ2_XS. Even the full model won’t accept that result.😅

Still no official support for the V100 yet.
Deepseek-V4.1-Flash now runs on 64GB of RAM with Strata. Using GSQ-RCO quantizations by @mhelcig

ModelScope hasn’t synced the GSQ-RCO GGUF for DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 yet, so I’m downloading from three other mirrors at the same time—and the speed is just as good as ModelScope’s.
Run a 763B-parameter model locally. DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 on a 12GB GPU. Frontier quality with GSQ-RCO quants, directly supported in the Strata inference engine. Further info below. Much more to come. Follow for updates.

Quick tip for the new Strata build: don’t forget --conversation-cache-mib 0 to disable conversation caching. You’ll lose a little prefill speed—just a heads-up.

We’re hitting 400 members this week! Join us and let’s rock local LLMs together. 🚀

China actually has plenty of homegrown inference GPUs, but prices haven’t dropped as expected—and they’re still not great for local LLMs. Literally one big reason: no CUDA. Without the ecosystem—PyTorch, kernels, quants, llama.cpp/Strata support—local LLM tinkering gets way harder.

Oops—Strata + DFlash still doesn’t support multi-GPU yet. Guess I’ll wait for the next release. 😅
An update before big release 👇 DFlash2 base support is now here! + A lot of other improvements + Stability improvements

You guys keep asking about the power cost of my 4×V100. I asked Strata + Qwen3.8-Flash to build me a dashboard—here’s the daily, weekly, and monthly bill. Don’t be surprised 😎

Do you now understand why DeepSeek is cheaper?😂
