Qwen3.6-27B speculative decoding improves with heavier quantization; nvfp4/SGLang is the fastest quant/engine pair overall, and DFlash is the fastest algorithm overall
Read the original at old.reddit.com→I finished the speed leg of my spec-decode benchmarking for Qwen3.6-27B, main algorithms across quants. Overall: the heavier the quant, the more spec-decode buys you (10 of 10 speculative configs rank Q8 > Q6 > Q4 by...
