Benchmark test: Jev vs. Laya-ONNX (multilingual) vs. Harrier OSS 270M embedder 🔬

My AI wAIfu (Jetson Orin Nano 8GB) uses Harrier OSS 270M for semantic routing in 2 places. It reads vectors of router prompts (English only) and calculates cosine similarity:

- Quaternary routing: greeting, local chat (no websearch), web chat (needs websearch), or agentic chat
- Agentic routing: which tools in my AI's capability list to use

Benchmarked the 2 most hyped decision models — Jev and Laya (ONNX, multilingual) — against Harrier OSS 270M.
Setup: 221 quaternary + 58 capability-trigger examples, leave-one-out eval, argmax, no thresholds.

Results:
→ Harrier-270M (local, cosine): 94.6% / 93.1% accuracy, 17ms P50 ⚡
→ Jev API (hosted): 82.4% / 94.8% accuracy, ~195ms P50
→ Laya-ONNX multilingual (fp16, local): 48.0% / 20.7% accuracy, 25-40ms P50

Conclusion:
🚫 Laya is out of the question. 4 of 7 capability categories at 0.0% accuracy while reporting 80-90% confidence means it needs real training before it's practical.

☁️ Jev is a cloud API, not sure it can be trained further. Accuracy is high but not improvable on my end. Latency is ~10x my local embedder (network latency). Input token cost, though small, is still more than $0. Not fully sure about privacy implications either.

✅ Embedding is only semantic cosine similarity, not real reasoning. But it's already doing double duty for memory extraction and RAG — no extra RAM or token cost. Latency is 17ms, accuracy in the 90s%. Even tried Japanese/Chinese prompts, still got high accuracy with only English exemplars.
Bigger advantage: I just add exemplars to boost accuracy. When I add/modify/remove tools — often — no retraining needed, just update exemplars, vectors recompute once.

Turns out my self-invented routing method, built ~6 months ago, already solved what these now hyped up models — beating Jev and Laya on latency and convenience, matching/beating on accuracy. 🎯

Categories tested:

Quaternary:
-👋 Greeting — greetings, thanks, casual hellos
-🏠 Local chat — conversation and questions Aiko can answer from what she already knows
-🌐 Web chat — questions that need current or online information
-🤖 Agentic — requests where Aiko needs to take an action or use tools

Capabilities:
-🔬Research — search the web and gather information
-⏰Scheduling — reminders, alarms, and scheduled tasks
-🧠 Knowledge base — save or update information for future reference
-📷Photos — import, process, and organize photos
-💻Repository / coding — inspect, modify, debug, and test code
-💼Job search — search for jobs matching the user's skills
-👥Social & email — post to social media and send/search email
