Hey all, I'm serving DSv4Flash 0731 on a cluster of 2x DGX Sparks but am running into constant issues with having almost no RAM (unified memory) left for the OS/cache and I'd love to hear the communit

For a long time now, the most popular posts on LocalLLaMA have been either about using LLM in the cloud or about politics. I suspect that people using local models are about 10% now. You can say that

Following up on yesterday's post about running everyone's faves on 2 x 16gb cards while maximizing performance and KV. Previous post data used abandoned Cu130 VLLM image. Stats here are done on cu129-

TL;DR: On a Qwen3.6-35B-A3B Q6 setup sized for 64K context on a 24GB RTX 3090, spilling eight MoE expert layers to CPU freed enough VRAM to increase -b from 512 to 1024 and -ub from 128 to 512. Prompt

Hi all. These are my system specs: dual xeon e5 2696 v2 , 160gb DDR3 ram ECC(1600mhz), 3 gpus: 3060 12gb, p100 16gb, 3050 6gb. And a 400gb nvme sdd RAID0, 3000 mb/s. The model is Deepseek-flash-0731 U

So I can either pull the trigger on a 128gb AI max+ 395 laptop or wait for RTX Spark for LLMs. Maybe I get it now and the price of the spark is super high so it's a good purchase or maybe the Spark sh

As for me, I own a system with an RTX 5090, Ryzen 9 9950X3D2, and 64 GB of DDR5. Every time I see research come out with a new way to train AI, I immediately think to try it on my system to see the re

Most agent memory setups run a model call on the way in. Something reads the turn, decides whether it's worth keeping, rewrites it into a 'memory', tags it with a type and an importance score. That's
