Why the edge:
- Agent interface, GLM-4.5-Air +35: GLM-4.5-Air 85 (Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository.); Qwen-AgentWorld-35B-A3B 50 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository, the same as the template in tokenizer_config.json.)
- Reach, GLM-4.5-Air +15: GLM-4.5-Air 70 (Memory 5 of 30, Z.ai's smallest build is FP8 at 112.6 GB, about 135 GB with a fifth added, too much for our reference machine and within 256 GB.); Qwen-AgentWorld-35B-A3B 55 (Memory 10, Alibaba's only build is the BF16 safetensors, 69.32 GB, and 69.32 GB × 1.2 = 83.2 GB, above 64 GB and inside the reference machine's GPU share.)
- Risk, GLM-4.5-Air +10: GLM-4.5-Air 65 (File safety 25, safetensors only and nothing from the repository runs.); Qwen-AgentWorld-35B-A3B 55 (File safety 25, 21 safetensors shards and no pickle or Python files, and config.json has no auto_map.)
