+### 🏅 Independent Benchmark of the APEX-I-MiniPlus Family (Occamy V2 Reference)
+> [!NOTE]
+> **Occamy V2 Reference Notice:** **External report:** [zephel01 independently benchmarked Occamy V2](https://note.com/zephel01/n/n71d3d7e6b70c?hl=en). The benchmark below was performed on **Occamy-1.0 APEX-I-MiniPlus V2**, not on this specific Nex-N2.5 model. It is included as independent evidence of the broader APEX-I-MiniPlus quantization approach and hybrid MoE architecture.
+The **APEX-I-MiniPlus** quantization architecture powering this model was subjected to an extensive independent evaluation by Japanese AI researcher and evaluator [zephel01 (CoolZero)](https://note.com/zephel01/n/n71d3d7e6b70c?hl=en) on an **NVIDIA RTX 5090 (32GB)** workstation running `llama.cpp` CUDA `b11027` with FlashAttention (`-fa on -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 -ngl 99`).
+The evaluation tested the APEX-I hybrid MoE engine across **348 unseeded trials** on SWE-bench style multi-file Python bug-fixing tasks with hidden `pytest` suites (`llmbench`):
+- **L6 Multi-File Code Generation (60 tasks):**
+  - **Context 32,768 (32K):** **93.3% Resolved** (46/60 tasks passed 5/5 consecutive trials; 20/20 on Easy–Hard).
+  - **Context 65,536 (65K):** **90.0% Resolved** (45/60 tasks passed 5/5 consecutive trials).
+  - **Match with 25–28 GB Models:** Matches or exceeds the resolution rate of full 25–28 GB models (such as `Ornith-1.5` and `Tiel-Coder` 35B-A3B) while consuming **over 10 GB less VRAM** (14.6 GB vs approx. 26 GB).
+- **Extreme Context VRAM Scaling (The Hybrid DeltaNet SSM Advantage):**
+  - **32K Context:** **14.6 GB** total VRAM allocation.
+  - **65K Context:** **15.1 GB** total VRAM allocation (only **+0.5 GB VRAM** added when doubling context!).
+  - *Architectural Explanation:* Because 30 of the 40 layers utilize Linear Attention / DeltaNet SSM ($O(1)$ constant recurrence memory), only the 10 full-attention anchor layers expand the KV cache. This proves empirically that **65,536 context runs 100% in VRAM on consumer 16GB GPUs (RTX 4080 / RTX 5080)** without offloading to system RAM.
+- **Measured Real-World Throughput:** Sustained single-stream generation of **approx. 247 – 251 tok/s** on NVIDIA RTX 5090.
