Quality is the published perplexity delta against f16 weights. Max context assumes an f16 KV cache; q8_0 roughly doubles it. This model interleaves sliding-window layers (1024 tokens, 5 of 30 layers global), which is why its cache barely grows with context.

The default. One binary, a model registry, an OpenAI-compatible port. More on Ollama.

01Download is 14.9 GB. Keep it on an SSD — a first load off a spinning disk takes minutes.

02macOS caps what the GPU may wire down at about 96.0 GB of 128 GB. Raising it with iogpu.wired_limit_mb is possible, and risky.

03There is room to go to the model's full 256K context on this card.
