There’s an inexplicable VRAM hogging issue with this version of DeepSeek Flash compared to the previous one.

I'm trying to run a model in LM Studio on a system with a 24GB GPU and 128GB of RAM. Unlike the previous version, this one is eating up a huge amount of VRAM for some reason—even though I explicitly specify that all experts should run on the CPU while attention runs on the GPU (just like I used to do for practically every model I've run before). Now, upon loading, it fills up all the VRAM and starts swapping into system RAM :( I tried the IQ3_XXS and UD-Q2_K_XL quantizations.

Can confirm same behavior on LM Studio on my machine, for the IQ3_S quant. However it seems that it is working properly on the latest mainstream llama.cpp build (b10218), so this could be a bug from LM Studio.
