Qwen3.8-2B-Distill-GGUF
GGUF quantizations of empero-ai/Qwen3.8-2B — a full-parameter distillation of Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B into the Qwen3.5-2B architecture, the smallest member of the family — for llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio, Jan, KoboldCpp, and other stock GGUF runtimes.

Estimate: file size × 1.1 + KV cache at 8K + 0.5 GB overhead. Not a benchmark — how we calculate this.
