Token-efficient, quantized reasoning model based on Qwen3.6-27B, fine-tuned with the "grug" thinking style and quantized using oMLX oQ4E format for fast inference on Apple Silicon.
grug-27b-oQ4E-fp16 is a quantized variant of
ProCreations/grug-27b, itself derived from
Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B. The model has been:
While the original grug-27b model uses bfloat16, this variant converts to float16 (fp16) as the quantized base dtype. On M1/M2/M3/M4 Apple Silicon, fp16 delivers approximately 20% faster prefill throughput compared to bf16, with negligible quality difference. The quantized weights remain at ~4.8 BPW via oQ4E.
