Q4_1_O
is likeQ4_1
, but with two important differences:Q4_1
, which quantized activations and does quantized dotThis format greatly improves perplexity as compared to
Q4_1
, but the cost is inference that is as slow asFP32
.Perplexity comparison on a private dataset (less is better):
Performance comparison (per-token latency, less is better):
