Grug-12B — iMatrix GGUF
GGUF quantizations of kai-os/Grug-12B, published by Liodon AI.
Quick Start
llama.cpp

ollama run hf.co/liodon-ai/Grug-12B-imatrix-GGUF:Q4_K_MLM Studio / Jan — search liodon-ai/Grug-12B-imatrix-GGUF and pick your quant.
Quants
| Quant | Size | VRAM est. | Notes |
|-------|------|-----------|-------|
| IQ2_M | 4.37 GB | ~5 GB | 2-bit, iMatrix — smallest usable |
| IQ3_M | 5.73 GB | ~7 GB | 3-bit, iMatrix — great quality/size tradeoff |
| IQ4_XS | 6.64 GB | ~8 GB | 4-bit extra-small, iMatrix |
| Q4_K_M | 7.38 GB | ~8 GB | 4-bit, iMatrix-calibrated (recommended) |
| Q5_K_M | 8.55 GB | ~10 GB | 5-bit, iMatrix-calibrated |
| Q6_K | 9.79 GB | ~11 GB | 6-bit, iMatrix-calibrated, near-lossless |
| Q8_0 | 12.67 GB | ~15 GB | 8-bit, essentially lossless |
What is iMatrix?
Standard quantization treats all weights equally. iMatrix runs 128 calibration chunks through
the full-precision model to find which weights matter most, then allocates more precision where
it counts. At Q2/Q3/Q4 this means noticeably better coherence and instruction-following —
same file size, better output.
Calibration: 2M tokens of WikiText-103.
