Extended Calibration (EC) INT4 AutoRound quantization of
Qwen/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B, a 122B MoE
(10B active) multimodal model. Drop-in replacement for
Intel/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-int4-AutoRound
with wider calibration settings for improved quality on long-context and
reasoning-heavy workloads.
Effective calibration batch size is 8 in both cases (1×8 vs 8×1) — mathematically
equivalent signal per optimizer step, just different memory/latency profile
during quantization.
If you build an FP8-dense hybrid on top of this checkpoint (e.g. via
albond's build-hybrid-checkpoint.py),
the hybrid builder will report more unmatched FP8 tensors than on Intel's
checkpoint (≈ 741 vs 408) because our visual encoder lives in a separate
model_visual.safetensors file rather than inline in the main shards. The
builder only scans main shards, so the FP8 visual tensors go unmatched and
visual stays at BF16 in the resulting hybrid. This is functionally harmless —
visual adds only ~0.9 GB at BF16 vs ~0.45 GB at FP8, no quality difference,
no impact on text throughput. Pass
--force to the hybrid builder to proceed.
If you only serve text (vast majority of use cases) or run vLLM against this
checkpoint directly without building a hybrid, this note does not apply.
