FP8 Quantization

Quantized using llm-compressor (v0.10.1-dev, main branch) to produce a compressed-tensors format checkpoint natively supported by vLLM — no --quantization flag or patches needed.

Quantization recipe

• Scheme: FP8 (W8A8) — static per-channel FP8 E4M3 weights with minmax observer, dynamic per-token FP8 E4M3 activations
• Calibration: 1024 samples from fineweb-edu-score-2, max sequence length 4096
• SmoothQuant: Not used (can interfere with MoE expert routing)
• Format: compressed-tensors (auto-detected by vLLM)

Precision map

Component	Precision	Rationale
Routed expert weights (160 experts × 89 MoE layers)	FP8 E4M3	Bulk of model — per-channel static scaling via calibration
Attention projections (q/k/v/o)	FP8 E4M3	GQA with 96Q / 8KV heads, head_dim=128
Shared expert weights	FP8 E4M3	Active every token, well-calibrated
Dense MLP (layers 0–2)	FP8 E4M3	Only 3 dense layers
Attention biases (q/k/v)	BF16	Small tensors, sensitive to precision loss
Router/gate weights	BF16	Routing errors cascade through all downstream computation
MoE e_score_correction_bias	BF16	Critical for expert load balancing
RMSNorm / QK norms	BF16	Negligible size, high sensitivity
Embeddings / LM head	BF16	Standard practice for quantized models
MTP head (layer 92: enorm, hnorm, eh_proj)	BF16	Speculative decoding head, kept full precision

Serving

vLLM (recommended)

vLLM auto-detects the compressed-tensors FP8 format from config.json. No --quantization flag required.

vllm serve trohrbaugh/GLM-4.7-heretic-fp8 \
    --tensor-parallel-size 4 \
    --max-model-len 131072 \
    --tool-call-parser glm47 \
    --reasoning-parser glm45 \
    --enable-auto-tool-choice

To disable thinking mode (shorter, faster responses):

vllm serve trohrbaugh/GLM-4.7-heretic-fp8 \
    --tensor-parallel-size 4 \
    --max-model-len 131072 \
    --tool-call-parser glm47 \
    --reasoning-parser glm45 \
    --enable-auto-tool-choice \
    --default-chat-template-kwargs '{"enable_thinking": false}'

Or disable per-request:

{
  "model": "trohrbaugh/GLM-4.7-heretic-fp8",
  "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
  "chat_template_kwargs": {"enable_thinking": false}
}
