LFM2.5-24B-A2B-GPTQ

4-bit GPTQ build of LiquidAI/LFM2.5-24B-A2B, built to serve an office of agents from one RTX 4000 Ada 20 GB. Also tested on a 16 GB RTX 4080 SUPER.

At a glance

Accuracy: GPTQ vs BF16

Within noise everywhere except GPQA Diamond: 11 fewer correct out of 198.

Under load

The RTX 4000 runs all 8 users at once, even with 32k prompts. The 4080 SUPER generates faster but fits only about two long prompts at a time; the rest wait.

Agent users per card

RTX 4000 Ada: 4 users comfortably, 6 with slowdowns. 4080 SUPER: 1โ€“2. The limit is how many conversation histories fit in the KV cache (KV cache tokens รท average session size).

Run it

Tested on vLLM 0.31.0 with these flags:

Flag Why
--quantization gptq_marlin fast 4-bit kernels
--kv-cache-dtype fp8 halves KV cache memory; every GPTQ result above uses it
--max-model-len 131072 (65536 on 16 GB) what fits next to the weights
--gpu-memory-utilization 0.95 gives vLLM 95% of VRAM, so more is left for KV cache
--max-num-seqs 8 up to 8 requests at once
--reasoning-parser qwen3 puts the <think> block in reasoning_content
--enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser lfm2 OpenAI-style tool calls
Details
  • Fidelity: wikitext-2 perplexity 15.69 vs 13.81 for BF16. KL divergence 0.365 mean. 78% top-token agreement.
  • KV cache: every GPTQ number uses an FP8 KV cache. The BF16 reference uses BF16.
  • Tool calls: 96โ€“98% valid. On vLLM 0.31.0, streaming sometimes cuts off a call's arguments.
  • Sampling: the server default is temperature 0.1. For agents, use about 0.4.

Next: a 3-seed Red Hat-style evaluation.
