This document contains the quantized LLM inference performance results on 70b+ models.
This collection, curated by prism-ml, features a specialized series of 1-bit Bonsai models designed for efficient text generation. The repository includes various model architectures and sizes, such as the 8B, 4B, and 1.7B parameter versions, optimized through extreme quantization. Available in formats like GGUF and MLX-1bit, these models are highly compressed to maximize performance while minimizing the computational footprint. This makes them ideal for running large language model tasks on hardware with limited resources. The collection serves as a hub for exploring the potential of ultra-compact, highly compressed models in the evolving landscape of machine learning and efficient inference.
Bonsai-8B-GGUF-1bit is an end-to-end 1-bit language model designed for high-efficiency deployment using llama.cpp across CUDA, Metal, and CPU architectures. This model provides a massive 14.1x reduction in memory footprint compared to standard FP16, requiring only 1.15 GB of parameter memory. By leveraging the GGUF Q1_0_g128 format, it achieves significant performance boosts, including 6.2x faster throughput on an RTX 4090 and substantially lower energy consumption per token. It is an ideal solution for on-device assistants, mobile applications, and edge robotics where memory, thermal, and power constraints are paramount.
