`ik_llama.cpp` imatrix Quantizations of MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7

NOTE ik_llama.cpp can also run your existing GGUFs from bartowski, unsloth, mradermacher, etc if you want to try it out before downloading my quants.

Some of ik's new quants are supported with Nexesenex/croco.cpp fork of KoboldCPP with Windows builds for CUDA 12.9. Also check for Windows builds by Thireus here. which have been CUDA 12.8.

These quants provide best in class perplexity for the given memory footprint.

Big Thanks

Shout out to Wendell and the Level1Techs crew, the community Forums, YouTube Channel! BIG thanks for providing BIG hardware expertise and access to run these experiments and make these great quants available to the community!!!

Also thanks to all the folks in the quanting and inferencing community on BeaverAI Club Discord and on r/LocalLLaMA for tips and tricks helping each other run, test, and benchmark all the fun new models! Thanks to huggingface for hosting all these big quants!

Finally, I really appreciate the support from aifoundry.org so check out their open source RISC-V based solutions!

Quant Collection

Perplexity computed against wiki.test.raw. (lower is "better")

These two are just a test quants for baseline perplexity comparison and not available for download here:

BF16 426.060 GiB (16.003 BPW)
- PPL over 552 chunks for n_ctx=512 = 7.8743 +/- 0.05993
Q8_0 226.431 GiB (8.505 BPW)
- PPL over 552 chunks for n_ctx=512 = 7.8764 +/- 0.05997

NOTE: The first split file is much smaller on purpose to only contain metadata, its fine!

OBSERVATION: Interestingly, the PPL does not look great on this one, but the KLD looks fine. The previous M2.5 also had some "poorly behaved" perplexity results as well with 4ish BPW quants showing "better" than baseline PPL.

For tool use you can always bring your own template with --chat-template-file myTemplate.jinja.

Advanced options like self-speculative decoding and using RAM for caching prompts e.g. (8192 would use 8GiB of RAM):

  --spec-type ngram-map-k4v --spec-ngram-size-n 8 --draft-min 1 --draft-max 16 --draft-p-min 0.4 \
  --cache-ram 8192 \
