Why the edge:
- Documentation and upkeep, Hy-Memory-30B-A3B +32: Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 68 (Model card 8, Intended use (the write path of Mem0, MemOS and Hy-Memory), parameters (30B, about 3B active) and languages (English and Chinese, in the metadata)…); Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 36 (Model card 11 of 20, intended use, architecture, parameters and context are there, but limitations, languages and a knowledge cut-off aren't.)
- Reach, Hy-Memory-30B-A3B +20: Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 85 (Memory 25, Tencent's own Q4_K_M GGUF is 18.24 GB, and 18.24 GB × 1.2 = 21.9 GB, which fits 24 GB but not 16 GB.); Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 65 (Memory 5 of 30, the smallest listed 4-bit build is Ollama's 120 GB q4_K_M, 144 GB with a fifth added, which is beyond the reference machine and inside 256 GB.)
- Risk, Hy-Memory-30B-A3B +15: Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 60 (File safety 25, 51 safetensors shards and no pickle or Python files.); Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 45 (File safety 25, safetensors only and nothing from the repository runs to load it or build prompts.)
- Agent interface, Qwen3.8-Flash-Next +5: Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 65 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository.); Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 70 (Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository.)
