Mixed Precision GGUF layer quantization of Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct by Qwen

Original model: https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct

The hybrid quant employs different quantization levels on a per layer basis to enable both high performance and small file size at the same time. The quants employed are all K to avoid slow CPU or older GPU processing of IQ quants.

Q4_K_H layer quants are as follows:

Q4_K_L : Q4_K_M + attn_o = q6_k
Q5_K_L : Q5_K_L : attn_v = q8_0 attn_o = q6_k ffn_d = q6_k
Q6_K_S : Q6_K

This quant was optimized over a small set of curated test prompts for code generation ability and then sanity checked for good performance on humaneval.

Comparison:

Quant	size	PPL	Comment
IQ4_XS	17.9e9	7.5	-
Q4_K_H	19.4e9	7.5	Hybrid quant with Q4_K embedding Q6_K output

Usage:

The model can be speculated with Qwen 2.5 Coder 0.5B Instruct with no vocab translation. It is trained at 32k context which can be extended to 128k using YARN:

-rope-scaling yarn --yarn-orig-ctx 32768 --rope_scale 4

For other than 128k context set rope_scale to the fraction of configured context size / 32768.0.

Approximate performance on 2X 12G VRAM 4070 with RPC (1Gb/s local LAN), all weigths and context in VRAM:

Q	QKV	ND	NKV	gen tps	Comment
Q4_K_H	F16	0	15k	21	No draft
Q4_K_H	F16	12	12k	79	Spec 12
Q4_K_H	Q8_0	0	27k	21	No draft
Q4_K_H	Q8_0	12	21k	78	Spec 12

for speculation a fixed length ND=12 token draft was used with a custom downstream speculator. The test prompt is humaneval first problem:

generate python code for the described function header:

from typing import List

def has_close_elements(numbers: List[float], threshold: float) -> bool:
    """ Check if in given list of numbers, are any two numbers closer to each other than
    given threshold.
    >>> has_close_elements([1.0, 2.0, 3.0], 0.5)
    False
    >>> has_close_elements([1.0, 2.8, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 2.0], 0.3)
    True
    """
