Qwen3.8-9B-Distill (W4A16 Quantized via AutoRound)
This repository contains a W4A16 (4-bit weights, 16-bit activations) quantized version of empero-ai/Qwen3.8-9B-Distill, quantized using Intel's AutoRound algorithm.
⚡ Quantization Details
Calibrated and quantized with fine-grained group sizes and high iteration depth to preserve reasoning traces (<think> blocks) and multimodal capabilities:
- Algorithm: Intel AutoRound
- Precision / Scheme: W4A16 (4-bit weights, 16-bit activations)
- Group Size: 32 (fine-grained reconstruction fidelity)
- Symmetric (
sym):True - Calibration Samples (
nsamples): 512 - Sequence Length (
seqlen): 4096 - Tuning Iterations (
iters): 1000 (Production-grade accuracy) - Vision Tower (
quant_nontext_module):False(Kept in BF16 to preserve visual reasoning and OCR precision) - Special Modules (
layer_config): Multi-Token Prediction (mtp,mtp.fc) kept in native bfloat16
📦 Available Formats

🚀 Usage & Quickstart
1. High-Throughput Serving via vLLM
# Using the LLM-Compressor / Compressed-Tensors build
vllm serve Vishva007/Qwen3.8-9B-Distill-W4A16-AutoRound-LLM-Compressor \
--dtype bfloat16 \
--max-model-len 8192 \
--gpu-memory-utilization 0.90
📊 VRAM & Performance Benefits
- Original Model (BF16): ~8–10 GB VRAM required for full context inference
- Quantized Model (W4A16 Group 32): ~2.5–3.5 GB VRAM (runs comfortably on 4GB/6GB consumer GPUs, laptops, and edge devices)
- Throughput: Lowers memory bandwidth pressure, accelerating token generation speeds during extended chain-of-thought (
<think>) reasoning.
