🏆 DGX Spark performance — current production (v3 image, 2026-04-29)

Served with DFlash spec decode (not the MTP head) on this XS body, the v3 image (ghcr.io/aeon-7/vllm-aeon-ultimate-dflash:qwen36-v3) clocks 38.5 tok/s median, 71.3 tok/s peak thinking-on / 38.1 / 68.4 thinking-off — a +18 % median / +26 % peak lift over the prior v2.1 image and a +17 % / +21 % stacked lift vs the original -NVFP4 (compressed-tensors) production. Median TTFT is 247 ms (was 325 ms — −24 %). See the GitHub Performance section for the four-config comparison table.

🙏 Reference recipe credit: The conv1d-preserved NVFP4 + MTP graft pipeline used to build this XS variant is based on sakamakismile's validated Qwen3.6-27B-NVFP4-MTP series (22K+ downloads). They worked out the modelopt config — including the strategic decision to quantize the GDN projection matmuls to NVFP4 while preserving linear_attn.conv1d at BF16 — and the MTP-head graft technique. We adapted the recipe to AEON-Ultimate's abliterated weights and ship both the conv1d-preserved-only XS variant (matching their footprint) and a heavier regular-MTP variant that additionally keeps the projections at BF16. Full credit for the underlying recipe → sakamakismile.

What "XS" means — and what it's not

This is the extra-small footprint sibling of -Multimodal-NVFP4-MTP. XS is not "everything to FP4." It is a deliberate, principled split: the heavy GDN matmul projections drop to NVFP4 (where they're bandwidth-bound and FP4 wins big), while the SSM-critical linear_attn.conv1d kernel stays BF16 (where FP4 has documented stability problems on long-context recurrence).

This is a smart, strategic quantization — not a precision compromise. The conv1d preservation matters: the GatedDeltaNet recurrence depends on the 1D convolution behaving numerically like its training distribution, and FP4 quantization of conv1d has been observed to cause drift on long-context inference in community testing. By keeping conv1d BF16 while quantizing the projections (which are bandwidth-limited matmuls where FP4 is a clean win), we get the ~6 GB footprint reduction without sacrificing the part of the model that's actually fragile under quantization. This is the same principle modelopt's NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG applies by default and the same recipe sakamakismile validated across his Qwen3.6-NVFP4-MTP series (22K+ downloads).

When to pick which:

• Pick the regular variant if you have ≥48 GB VRAM. Even the projection weights at BF16 give a small additional safety margin on long-context recurrence stability.
• Pick this XS variant if you have 24–32 GB VRAM (RTX 5090, single GPUs without headroom for full BF16 GDN). The conv1d preservation guarantees the SSM recurrence stays numerically stable; the ~6 GB savings buy meaningful KV-cache headroom on tight GPUs.

We ship both because we have the headroom on RTX PRO 6000 / B100/B200 to run the larger, more numerically-conservative version, and several users on tighter cards have asked for the smaller one. Neither variant quantizes linear_attn.conv1d — that would be a different (and not-recommended) variant we have explicitly chosen not to ship.

Variants

What this is

The modelopt-format NVFP4 + MTP variant, multimodal-preserved, with linear_attn projections fully quantized, of AEON-7/Qwen3.6-27B-AEON-Ultimate-Uncensored-BF16 — the lossless abliteration of Qwen 3.6 27B (KL 0.000492 vs base, 0/100 refusals, multimodal preserved, hybrid GDN-aware quantization).

Specifically:

• Body quantized to NVFP4 via nvidia-modelopt 0.43.0 with NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG. modelopt format, served by vLLM through --quantization modelopt.
• Linear-attn / GatedDeltaNet projections quantized to NVFP4 (this is the XS difference). Only linear_attn.conv1d is kept BF16 (modelopt's default). The community has validated this approach on Qwen3.5/3.6-NVFP4 builds with 22K+ downloads on sakamakismile's reference recipes; we re-ran calibration on our abliterated weights and the model serves correctly.
• Vision tower preserved BF16 (333 keys). Multimodal inference fully functional.
• MTP head grafted from the base Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B checkpoint (15 tensors, BF16, bit-exact verified). Powers --speculative-config '{"method":"qwen3_5_mtp",...}' for self-speculative decoding without a separate drafter.

Why MTP

Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) lets the model predict multiple future tokens per forward pass via the trained mtp.* head, enabling speculative decoding without a separate drafter model. The acceptance rate is high because the drafter is the model itself — same architecture, same weights, same distribution.

Indicative published numbers (sakamakismile's reference recipe on RTX 5090):

• Single-stream short prompts at n=3: ~132 tok/s
• Single-stream long-form: ~105 tok/s
• 2-parallel aggregate (256K + KV FP8): ~189-207 tok/s
• Mean acceptance length: ~3.0-4.0 (compared to DFlash chains of ~2.0-2.3)

Validated benchmarks of the AEON-Ultimate XS variant land in the GitHub repo once measured.

🎯 When to pick this variant — measured hardware routing

The right speculative-decode method depends on memory architecture:

Usage

vLLM serve — dedicated-VRAM Blackwell (default: MTP via grafted head)

# One-time: pull this repo locally
hf download AEON-7/Qwen3.6-27B-AEON-Ultimate-Uncensored-Multimodal-NVFP4-MTP-XS \
  --local-dir ./aeon-ultimate-multimodal-nvfp4-mtp-xs

# Serve
export VLLM_NVFP4_GEMM_BACKEND=flashinfer-cutlass
export VLLM_USE_FLASHINFER_MOE_FP4=0
export VLLM_USE_FLASHINFER_SAMPLER=1

vllm serve ./aeon-ultimate-multimodal-nvfp4-mtp-xs \
  --quantization modelopt \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --max-model-len 262144 \
  --max-num-seqs 32 \

  --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder \
  --enable-auto-tool-choice \
  --speculative-config '{"method":"qwen3_5_mtp","num_speculative_tokens":3}'

num_speculative_tokens=3 is the canonical setting for qwen3_5_mtp. Higher values diverge the drafter further from the target distribution and acceptance falls.

vLLM serve — DGX Spark (DFlash spec, not MTP — measured winning config)

For DGX Spark, swap the spec method to DFlash. The XS body still benefits from FP4 silicon, but DFlash's k=15 chains are decisively better than MTP's n=3 on unified memory.

# Pull the DFlash drafter alongside this body
hf download z-lab/Qwen3.6-27B-DFlash --local-dir ./qwen36-27b-dflash

vllm serve ./aeon-ultimate-multimodal-nvfp4-mtp-xs \

Production-validated v3 image: ghcr.io/aeon-7/vllm-aeon-ultimate-dflash:qwen36-v3. Measured 38.1 tok/s median, 68.4 tok/s peak thinking-off and 38.5 / 71.3 thinking-on — the highest single-stream config we've measured on Spark.

Configuration notes

• --quantization modelopt is required for this body (not compressed-tensors — different format).
• --speculative-config '{"method":"qwen3_5_mtp", ...}' uses the grafted MTP head; correct for dedicated-VRAM Blackwell. Don't use this on DGX Spark.
• --speculative-config '{"method":"dflash", ...}' uses an external DFlash drafter; correct for DGX Spark. The grafted MTP head in this repo sits unused in this path (~0.85 GB dead weight). Don't use this on RTX PRO 6000 or B100/B200 — they prefer MTP.
• --gpu-memory-utilization 0.94 is the validated cap on RTX PRO 6000; 0.85 is the cap on DGX Spark (unified memory thrashes higher).

Quantization recipe

• Tool: nvidia-modelopt 0.43.0 with NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG
• Loader: Qwen3_5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained (multimodal-preserved class)
• Calibration: neuralmagic/calibration LLM split, 20 samples × 8192 tokens
• Excluded from quantization (kept BF16) — XS variant differences from the regular variant in bold:
  • lm_head, proj_out.*, *router*, *mlp.gate.* (NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG)
  • *linear_attn.conv1d*, *mixer.conv1d* *(NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG default — kept BF16 because FP4 quantization of the SSM 1D convolution causes drift on long-context recurrence; this is the recurrence-critical kernel of the GatedDeltaNet block. Both regular and XS variants preserve this.)*
  • *linear_attn* is NOT broadly excluded (XS difference — the projection matmuls in_proj_qkv, in_proj_z, in_proj_a/b, out_proj get NVFP4-quantized; saves ~8 GB; FP4 is a clean win on bandwidth-bound matmuls)
  • *visual* (vision tower preservation)
  • *mtp* (MTP head preservation)
  • *output_layer*, output.*
• MTP graft: 15 tensors copied bf16 from Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B after modelopt export
