Why the edge:
- Documentation and upkeep, Nanbeige4.2-3B +44: GLM-4.7-Flash 28 (The card covers architecture, parameters and languages and misses four of the seven items, for 8. Training data is 0, as the card describes none.); Nanbeige4.2-3B 72 (Model card 17, Intended use, limitations, the architecture, the parameters (3B outside the embeddings), the context and the languages (in the metadata) are on t…)
- Reach, Nanbeige4.2-3B +5: GLM-4.7-Flash 80 (Memory earns 25, since Ollama's smallest build is the 19 GB q4_K_M one, about 22.8 GB with the fifth added, which fits 24 GB.); Nanbeige4.2-3B 85 (Memory 30, the smallest build from Nanbeige is the FP8 repository (the 8-bit GPTQ one is the same size), 5.19 GB, and 5.19 GB × 1.2 = 6.2 GB, within 16 GB.)
