 Quality and speed scale with quant size; **Q4_K_M** is a strong default for ~8 GB of VRAM/RAM.
 ## Support This Work
 I'm a PhD student in visual neuroscience at the University of Toronto who also happens to spend way too much time fine-tuning, merging, and quantizing open-weight models on rented H100s and a local DGX Spark. All training compute is self-funded — balancing GPU costs against a student budget. If my uploads have been useful to you, consider buying a PhD student a coffee. It goes a long way toward keeping these experiments running.

 Quality and speed scale with quant size; **Q4_K_M** is a strong default for ~8 GB of VRAM/RAM.
+## Speculative decoding (MTP)
+Every quant embeds the model's native multi-token-prediction (MTP) draft head (GGUF `block_count` 33), so self-speculative decoding runs from a single file — no separate draft model needed:
+```bash
+llama-cli -m ornstein-v2-Q4_K_M.gguf --spec-type draft-mtp \
+  -p "Write a Python function is_prime(n)."
