I've run the benchmark on a RTX 3090, 1024 tokens in / 256 out, concurrency 1–32. If the model fits on vRAM (Gemma-4-26B-A4B, byte-identical GGUF on both engines): llama.cpp has 2.2–3.2× the throughpu

So everyone has been yelling about how I should be using Gufo instead of halogen because it's open source and it's 'just as good or better'. Checking in on their GitHub (GitHub.com/gufo-org/gufo) got

A few days ago I released Jeff-Qwen3.5-0.8B, a small 'System 1' model that picks between options you define and returns a calibrated probability for each, in one forward pass. Speed was great on my M4
