Full fine-tune (not LoRA) of h2oai/h2o-danube3-500m-chat for email triage.
VARIANT EXPERIMENT -- candidate replacement for cipher-nano. SmolLM2 (49K
vocab, 135M/360M) shrinks to the right disk size but plateaus at weak
category/importance accuracy after multiple tuning attempts (LoRA vs full-FT,
epoch sweeps, data reshaping) -- a base-pretraining-quality ceiling, not a
tuning problem (see DEPLOYMENT.md). Qwen2.5-0.5B has the opposite problem:
strong base quality but a 151,936-token vocabulary that floors its disk size
around 340-400MB regardless of quantization, so it can't shrink into nano's
target range either.
Danube3-500M is a plain LlamaForCausalLM with a 32,000-token vocabulary --
much smaller than Qwen/Gemma, comparable to SmolLM2 -- while coming from a
more conventional larger-scale pretraining recipe (h2oai's Danube series).
Worth testing whether it breaks the small-vocab-means-weak-base pattern.
Same data/format/eval as the other nano candidates -- only the base model
differs.
