Kindling AI releases exlr8 K2/K3/K4 quantized GLM-5.3 for local multi-node serving
Overview
Kindling AI releases an exlr8 K2/K3/K4 quantization of the 744B-parameter GLM-5.3 mixture-of-experts model, according to a ModelScope post on X. The memory footprint ranges from 219GB to 378GB. The K2, K3 and K4 expert weights ship together, so precision can be changed at load time.
The release is a preview. ModelScope says performance measurement and full BF16-alignment validation are still in progress.
