What toolchain are you going to use with the local model? I agree that’s a Strong model, but it’s so slow for be with large contexts I’ve stopped using it for coding.

Curious how you handle sharding and KV cache pressure for a 120b model. I guess you are doing tensor parallelism across consumer cards, or is it a unified memory setup?

I don't, fits on my card with the full context, I think the native MXFP4 weights takes ~70GB of VRAM (out of 96GB available, RTX Pro 6000), so I still have room to spare to run GPT-OSS-20B alongside for smaller tasks too, and Wayland+Gnome :)

I thought the RTX 6000 Ada was 48GB? If you have 96GB available that implies a dual setup, so you must be relying on tensor parallelism to shard the model weights across the pair.

Can you tell me more about your agent harness? If it’s open source, I’d love to take it for a spin.
I would happily use local models if I could get them to perform, but they’re super slow if I bump their context window high, and I haven’t seen good orchestrators that keep context limited enough.
