ProCreations/grug-v1.1-qwen-3.8-27b-mtp-gguf
grug-v1.1-qwen-3.8-27b-mtp — GGUF
grug in box, with draft head still inside. same weight as ProCreations/grug-v1.1-qwen-3.8-27b-mtp.
normal grug GGUF throw the MTP head away (--no-mtp) because it just make file bigger for nothing. this build keep it, as blk.64.nextn.* tensor, so engine that do speculative decoding can guess ahead.
the small extra size IS the draft head.
which repo you want
- just run grug -> grug-v1.1-qwen-3.8-27b-gguf. smaller, 5 quant, no dead weight.
- speculative decoding -> this one.
draft head only help when your engine actually use it. if your runtime ignore nextn, you carry 0.3 GB for nothing — take the other repo.
why draft head retuned
Qwen3.8 native head agree with grug verifier 90.04% of time at t+2. grug retune it on grug own output and get 95.37% — disagree 1-in-21 instead of 1-in-10. higher agree = more draft token accepted = faster.
number is top-1 agreement with verifier, not measured wall-clock speedup. receipt and method on the MTP model card.
run
llama-cli -m grug-27b-v1.1-mtp-Q4_K_M.gguf -p "write a function that flattens a nested list"verified output identical to non-MTP grug. draft head change speed, never answer.
quant load-tested with llama-bench before upload. use medium reasoning effort — full table on the main card.
apache-2.0.
