← Back to context

how do you do 1mio context with qwen3.6 27b, that only supports 256k? and what hardware would you run that on? 2 * 3090 is afaik currently at max 256k context.

You can get all the Qwen 3.x models up to ~1 million tokens using YaRN with llama.cpp.[0]

Personally I am using `--no-context-shift` and feeding in context back in on failure at the harness level.

I have 2x1080ti + 1xTitanV that have a full 262,144 tokens context on 262,144 tokens with `-sm tensor` at 62.04 t/s which isn't so bad.

But I also have a 1x3090 running unsloth/Qwen3.6-27B-MTP-GGUF:UD-Q4_K_XL at 41.89 t/s but with only 130k context, but if you have a modular programming style both work pretty well.

But play with YaRN if you really need it.

  • How can you get it to run at 41 t/s? I also have a single 3090 and even with MTP can't break 20 t/s.

    HEre's my setup:

      llama-server
      --port 9999
      --model /MODELS/LLMs/Qwen3.6-27B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf
      --ctx-size 128000
      --threads 12
      --flash-attn on
      --device CUDA0
      --jinja
      --gpu-layers 52
      --mmproj /MODELS/LLMs/Qwen3.6-27B-mmproj-F16.gguf
      --cache-type-k q8_0
      --cache-type-v q8_0
      --temp 0.6 --top-k 20 --top-p 0.95 --min-p 0.0 --repeat-penalty 1.0 --presence-penalty 0.0
      --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-n-max 2
    

    (I'm not filling out 100% of the VRAM, as I have other stuff I need it for.)

      Ya, if you are using the CPU it may slowdown quick.

      This may be a bit huge and overcomplicated, on this host I am running it on a AMD Ryzen 7 5700G so that I can use the APU to dedicate the 3090.

          podman run --device nvidia.com/gpu=all -d -v llama_qwen3.6mpt:/root/.cache -p 8080:8080 local/llama.cpp:full-cuda --server \
          -hf unsloth/Qwen3.6-27B-MTP-GGUF:UD-Q4_K_XL \

          --top-p 0.95 \
          --presence-penalty 0.0 \
          --repeat-penalty 1.05 \
          --fit off \
          --reasoning on \
          --chat-template-kwargs '{"preserve_thinking":true}' \
          --prio 3 \
          --poll 100 \
          --port 8080 \
          --host 0.0.0.0
      
      

      I am just building the container with:

           podman build -t local/llama.cpp:full-cuda --target full -f .devops/cuda.Dockerfile .
      

      And here is the logs from a 'make me a flappy bird program in python' webui prompt.

           prompt eval time =     105.86 ms /    19 tokens (    5.57 ms per token,   179.47 tokens per second)
             eval time =  100549.41 ms /  4608 tokens (   21.82 ms per token,    45.83 tokens per second)
            total time =  100655.28 ms /  4627 tokens
           draft acceptance rate = 0.47215 ( 3408 accepted /  7218 generated)
      

      I am down to ~25.54 t/s with a 95% full context.
