SAVRN's Notes on dolphin-2.9.1-yi-1.5-34b
A 34.4B-parameter model that still fits one rented card: 82.5 GB at 16-bit, 41.3 GB at 8-bit, 20.6 GB at 4-bit, and the cheapest listed setup at every precision is one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 an hour on-demand. That makes this one of the few ways to run an unquantized 34B for under two dollars an hour. The 8,192-token context is the limit to design around — it sits well below the 32K windows on the Qwen coder and VL neighbors here — so long-document work should look at those first, and use this for what fits.
The listing records a derivation from 01-ai/Yi-1.5-34B with a LlamaForCausalLM architecture, and the disclosed training mixes — function-calling-chatml, Dolphin-2.9, dolphin-coder — point at code and tool-calling use rather than long-form prose. Apache 2.0 permits commercial use, modification and redistribution with notices kept and changes stated; read the base model's terms alongside. The repo is 24 files totaling 68.8 GB in bfloat16 safetensors, and the files last moved September 8, 2025. No Index host sells it by the token.
SAVRN's Notes on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-abliterated-v4
83.2 GB at 16-bit, 20.8 GB at 4-bit for a 34.7B-parameter mixture-of-experts with 262,144 tokens of context: the whole thing fits one 192 GB MI300X at $1.85 an hour, with headroom the long-context cache will happily consume. That is the practical news — a quarter-million-token window usually means a multi-GPU bill, and here it does not. A GGUF conversion of the same checkpoint sits in a sibling repository if your stack is llama.cpp rather than vLLM.
What you are actually downloading is Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B with its refusal direction surgically removed, per the publisher's own table: harmful-prompt refusals drop from roughly 98% to zero, with harmless-prompt refusals unchanged at zero. The refusal policy moves out of the weights and into your gateway, which is where an operator has to own it. Apache 2.0 keeps commercial use open, and no third-party evaluations are reported for this edit, so budget time to regression-test it yourself.
Questions
