| # Qwen3.6-27B MTPLX Optimized Speed | |
| ## Run this with MTPLX | |
| **MTPLX** is an MLX-native runtime for native Multi-Token-Prediction speculative decoding on Apple Silicon. Up to **2.24× faster decode** at real coding temperatures (`temp=0.6 / top_p=0.95 / top_k=20`) using the model's own built-in MTP heads — no external drafter, no greedy hack. | |
| ```bash | |
| pip install mtplx | |
| mtplx start | |
| ``` | |
| **Project:** [github.com/youssofal/MTPLX](https://github.com/youssofal/MTPLX) | |
| **Other MTPLX checkpoints:** | |
| - [Qwen3.6-27B-MTPLX-Optimized](https://huggingface.co/Youssofal/Qwen3.6-27B-MTPLX-Optimized) — verified default (GDN8-Speed4 trunk + CyanKiwi INT4 MTP) | |
| - [Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed](https://huggingface.co/Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed) — small 4-bit speed-test | |
| - [Qwen3.5-4B-Optimized-MTPLX](https://huggingface.co/Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-Optimized-MTPLX) — small 8-bit | |
| --- | |
| This is the speed checkpoint for MTPLX v0.1.0-preview. It combines the | |
| MLXCommunity flat 4-bit MLX trunk with the calibrated CyanKiwi INT4 MTP sidecar | |
| and embeds `mtplx_runtime.json` so MTPLX can run it as the optimized speed | |
| variant. | |
| Target repository: `Youssofal/Qwen3.6-27B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed` | |
| ## Runtime | |
| ```bash | |
| mtplx pull Youssofal/Qwen3.6-27B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed | |
| mtplx run "hello" --model Youssofal/Qwen3.6-27B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed | |
| mtplx serve --model Youssofal/Qwen3.6-27B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed --port 8000 --no-stats-footer | |
| ``` | |
| MTPLX v0.1.0-preview supports Qwen3-Next-MTP only. This model is verified for | |
| the `qwen3-next-mtp` backend. | |

| | Base model | `Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B` | `6a9e13bd6fc8f0983b9b99948120bc37f49c13e9` | Apache-2.0 | | |
| | Calibrated MTP sidecar source | `cyankiwi/Qwen3.6-27B-AWQ-BF16-INT4` | `8cc526ddcfdd53346f94fb9b5458ca8495a63218` | Apache-2.0 | | |
| | MTPLX conversion and runtime contract | `youssofal/mtplx` | v0.1.0-preview.1 | Apache-2.0 | | |
| The trunk is the MLXCommunity flat 4-bit affine conversion of | |
| `Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B`. The MTP sidecar is derived from the downloaded CyanKiwi | |
| compressed-tensors checkpoint at the revision listed above. | |
| ## Verification | |
| `mtplx_runtime.json` records: | |
| - architecture: `qwen3-next-mtp` | |
| - maximum MTP depth: `3` | |
| - recommended profile: `performance-cold` | |
| - recommended draft-only LM head: `3-bit affine, group_size=64` | |
| - recommended draft sampler: temperature `0.70`, top-p `0.95`, top-k `20` | |
| - exactness gate: `Phase 0H paged-verifier smoke` | |
| - exactness max absolute diff: `0.0` | |
| - verified hardware: `Apple M5 Max, 128 GB unified memory` | |
| - verified timestamp: `2026-05-03T23:07:00+0100` | |
| Target sampler used for the recorded contract: temperature `0.6`, | |
| top-p `0.95`, top-k `20`, with thinking mode disabled. The draft proposal | |
| sampler is intentionally slightly hotter at temperature `0.70`; target | |
| verification and residual correction remain exact. | |
| ## Performance Honesty | |
| This is the default speed lane. On the local Apple M5 Max fanmax | |
| performance-cold benchmark, this artifact reached **63.056 tok/s** and | |
| **62.886 tok/s** at depth 3 on the long-code 192-token prompt when using its | |
| contract-recommended 3-bit draft-only LM head plus draft sampler temperature | |
| `0.70`, with thinking mode disabled and foreground app load reduced. The | |
| proposal change reduced the measured correction tokens from 6 to 3 and verify | |
| calls from 50 to 49 on the recorded prompt; target sampling remains temperature | |
| `0.6` / top-p `0.95` / top-k `20`. A full greedy diagnostic on the same cleaned | |
| fanmax window measured **60.108 tok/s**. Earlier contract evidence measured | |
| 61.527 and 60.900 tok/s, the earlier 3-bit draft-head contract measured 60.038 | |
| and 60.061 tok/s, and the older 4-bit draft-only LM head measured 57.668 tok/s | |
| on the same lane. | |
